A question about recently-renamed London venues...

Which do I want to do ? See a band at the HMV Forum (né Kentish Town Forum) on a Saturday night, or see the same band at The Relentless Garage (né The Garage, Islington) on a Sunday night.

I know the Forum is a decent enough venue. On the whole, though, I like small venues, which means the Garage might be a better bet. I'm not actually sure I've ever been to the Garage, though, even before it became Relentless; I've only ever seen bands in the upstairs-at-the-Garage, which was fairly tiny. Is it a nice place to catch a band ?

In other news, the band in question is Einstuerzende Neubauten, are you going to come too ? Although it seems I failed to write it up here, their gig at the Forum was my gig-of-the-year in 2008.

Very observant people will notice that I know the easy keyboard shortcut for e-acute, but do not know a similar easy keyboard shortcut for u-with-umlaut.

Alt-0252 works fine for me in Word. I'm using XP / Office 2002, which I note is earlier than yours, but it would seem an odd feature for them to remove. What happens when you try it? But there is no depth to Microsoft's infamy I guess.

(And, in a small voice because this will sound very patronizing, but you never know: do you have Num Lock applied, as it won't work without that?)

do you have Num Lock applied, as it won't work without that?

I do know that, of course I do... and er, if I'd remembered to check that it was applied maybe I'd have noticed that it wasn't :) I always leave Num Lock on, since I don't use the number pad for anything else, but apparently it got unapplied at some point.

And thus didn't work. Which it does now.

Ahem.

Excellent, now you can ülülate away like a good'un.
