    I've been Money Tipped!
    I know nothing of fizzy waters. Only ones I've bought have been a couple of bottles of cheapo/basics 2litres of fizzy water at supermarkets about 10 years ago. I thought I'd try it with squash ... but it goes flat.

    I've not heard of some of the waters listed above - in fact, I can't believe people just had a conversation about water brands!!!

    We stuck to mainstream ones though!

    The only time I like fizzy water is as part of a Mojito.

    21:43 - Beep - found out what is was on Sunday, the kids have an electronic stopwatch which they have somehow managed to set the time wrong and also set the hourly beep function, no instructions so I haven't yet figured out how to turn off the beeps.
    I think....

    A hammer usually helps.

    Thank goodness you did that before you stripped the walls back!

    Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.

    Sorry about the source, but this is quite a fun quiz... how tech savvy are you in Key Stage terms? Are you smarter than a 5 year old?

    I did it this morning. Got up to Key Skills Stage 4 and it stops. But then I've got an A level in Computer Science and half a degree in computer programming stuff.... (from 15 years ago), so I'd expect to have answered the questions easily.

    I got to Key Skill Stage 4 too. Rather a lot of educated guesswork for me though.
