Marry me?

I misread that as "and undress you if you want". Quite presumptuous, this Hat Alex, I thought.

I have much spare time on my hands, I'm free to come over most days and unbore you if you want.

It's not presumptuous when it's pre-arranged

yeah well, I want an office like this.Pft. I already have three of those lying about. Why would I want to work in one?

Well, since Maplins staff area bunch of tossers who don't feel the need to staff the electronics section and instead just stand about nattering, I'm now having to wing things. Here's hoping the output on the serial port is going to be enough to push the info over a 100K resistor, rather than a 100 Ohms one as I suspect I'm supposed to be using. Though to be fair, being colour blind means the job could call for 100k, since I can't see an exact reading on the resistance value needed. Though I do see reference to 100R, which is another way of writing 100 Ohm. 
At least I know I can't blow the board doing this since barely a trickle of juice will hit the system if I use higher rated resistors.
Anyone with better vision than me care to enlighten me as to the colours used in this image?
I'm thinking Brown Black Brown, which is 100 Ohms but I can't be certain.

If you mean the top three slivery-stripey things then I think your right. It looks brown, black, brown in that picture to me
I am going to be insanely nervous that I've got it wrong now

Cheers. I hate being colour blind! Though it does lead to hilarious arguements about resistor values with my similarly colour blind older brother.

Rayanne Graff:
His name is George. Also, he started Spam.
Rayanne Graff:
i spoke to him a couple of times and that was in October of 2009.
the doc:
Wow, a proper old head
Rayanne Graff:
Yeah, he was the 15th person to join.
satansrubberduck:
I didn't directly start Spam. Also the proof of that long since disappeared.
Rayanne Graff:
No, it didn't; the Spam spam spam you made in 2002 is on page 105 of the Spam board.
satansrubberduck:
Oh. I looked for it years ago and couldn't find it. The colour tags are (thankfully) broken.
satansrubberduck:
Odd to think it's been over a decade since I first got involved with 'Zine.
Claire:
It's not odd to me since I've just had the exact same conversation with you...

SRD made an appearence holy moly haven't seen him on here for years
Maeby:
JIM!
the doc:
Wow, event Starws isn't here tonight 
the doc:
Straws ^
the doc:
*whistles*
the doc:
Ah well, off I go as well then
Rayanne Graff:
Sorry, Stu; i was busy tidying things. xx
