    I've finally convinced my mum to move from hotmail to Gmail huzzzaahhh you say !!!!

    But not so huzzaahhh really !! Because I set up email forwarding from hotmail to gmail but said forwarding doesn't seem to be working and instead emails sent to her hotmail that should be forwarded to her gmail are now just disappearing into interwebs oblivion !

    Would anyone know how I could fix this ?

    (I've already checked if the forwarding address was correct )

    You know usually google ads show you things you've searched for recently :cool: depending who's on your computer network too that can also influence it, where I work there's ads for mature dating..... :pac:

    Click the gear icon, "Options" then "email forwarding" insert the gmail address into the Forward part and tick keep a copy of the forwarded mail (just in case), then click done. Should just work from that.

    Both the colour ink and the black ink in my printer have run out just as I'm printing the last of my notes for my last exam. How apt!

    (Knowing my luck, I'm going to need to print something else before I move out now even though I've barely used it all year!)

    I have a leg pain that, according to WebMD is "more common among older people, or endurance athletes." And I am no endurance athlete.

    My STI is apparently a sports injury therefore I have proved that shopping = sport.

    No elderly for me!

    You got an sti while shopping for sports gear?
    Is that 'sports' gear or actual stuff for sports...?
    I've the feeling I'm missing some important information here.

    EDIT: wait I've decided I don't want to know any more.

    No sports or 'sports' gear was involved. Just normal shopping.

    In summary: shopping gave me an STI in my ankle.

    I really worry about the rumours I start about myself.

    I think lecturers should have to do some sort of teaching training/qualification to be a lecturer and be interviewed as such.

    Or at least some public speaking training ! If I've to deal with another lecturer who disanimatley mumbles into the mic at the podium while reading off slides I might just throw myself off the Hume building !

    It seems most are hired on academic/research merits. Which is great but good academic doesnt always = good teacher.

    Eccentric nut bags are the best and worst lecturers, very interesting classes but totally unapproachable for help or after questions.

    The quest to win the euromillions goes on. :(

    Or ones with honestly 0 social / engagement skills, whose notes consists of pictures of animals shouting at one another with no explanation/reference to allow us to understand why exactly we're making notes on monkeys scream tactics

    (I'm in a real course I swear)
