Hasn't everything already moved? Anyway, we sure are Passionate about Wansbeck - but maybe not in the way those on expense accounts and large publicity budgets would like to assume! Nice prophetic touch the setting sun. Doubtless all drafted by another master of spin.

Sadly, this is what happens when you buy your cues in Netto!

Yup!! Now how much are the shares worth? Government can't be seen to be subsidising all those "idle rich" shareholders by supporting their risk-taking habit.

I loaned our telly to downstairs for a few days almost a fortnight ago now. And, despite the fact that it's only a lightweight 26" LCD, can't be a**** to go get it and plug it in again. It only just became clear that reading books and listening to internet radio on the notebook computer is far more entertaining than all the mindless drivel on TV these days. How long can I hold out TV'less (the first time for decades)? No idea, but when I go to get it it will probably be just to fill the empty space in the room, and certainly not because of boredom. What I really want now is a decent pair of Bluetooth speakers for the notebook computer.

Doubtful. Probably a "buzzword" Monsta has never heard of!

Never had a problem with poor penguins (idle or not). The problem is with penguins who don't know how to behave on someone else's iceflow.

In which case the filter is unlikely to be the real cause of the problem, but the swap has improved the s/n ratio just enough for now. (Note that doesn't necessarily mean that the new filter is any better than the old, just has slightly different characteristics in your circumstances.) Your modem/router probably has a line diagnostics page. You need to watch both the downlink and uplink s/n figure. This can vary wildly with the time off day and will likely be worse after dark. A low figure is bad and likely to coincide with the intermittent problem, a high one good.

Yet another place Ryanair ruined with their 1p long-haul flights then?

The answer might be that we've got a MS Certified Expert - or whatever the buzzword is - in town (no sniggering at the back!). Will see if I can persuade him to field it.

He?! It was undoubtedly a female "alien"! She's migrated to planet Pluto (sp?) now (global warming?), but I'd be careful what you say as I'm told she/it regularly reads this forum, and can still make strange things happen in the town by telekinesis (or something very very similar)! And friends, this is a true story. I know, I was that soldier. Err... I mean that photographer

Somehow I think they are flogging a dead horse. If you look at what a DVD costs to produce compared to the selling cost, then make the same comparisons on an audio CD, it's apparent what a huge rip-off CDs have always been. This is particularly true here in the UK where we've been exploited for so long. The days of the big record company are over, and their "money for old rope" back-catalogue profits too. I don't buy the nonsense that this will kill the music industry. Technology always opens more doors than it closes.

Up until the present day "brand imaging" it had always been the Howard Arms, at least within living memory. I'm wrong about Greggs being beside Barclays (extreme right edge of photo), it was Carricks. For a while we had two bakery chains there. And, I'm still being told that Clevva Clothes wasn't still there by the late 1970's - very puzzling! What you can say with reasonable certainty is that it's a high-summer shot taken late morning. Maybe June or July. That there are virtually no cars around at that time of day - except a bit of passing traffic - , few people, and the shops look shut, says it must be a late Sunday morning. Get the year right and you can almost pinpoint the date and time!

Ignore Monsta, he's on commission from the Ruskies! It always helps a lot if you say exactly what your operating system is. Some of the world doesn't even use Window$ you know. If XP Pro then hit the [start] button, select Control Panel; then the Security Centre (cute spelling that!) harlequin shield icon; selecting that you should be able to turn the firewall on. Be warned that all this protection can slow your machine down something awful, and there's no guarantees it will protect you if you do something else silly. There's no substitute for common sense - like not opening e-mail attachment when you aren't absolutely sure of their origin. Ditto for installing so-called "free" software of indeterminate origin.

Are you sure? I'm told that Clevva Clothes had moved by 1975, and that it was a fruit & veg shop by then. Difficult to tell from the cars, too few and too far away. But... Greggs looks suspiciously modern, and I think it was originally beside Barclays. Pity there wasn't a bit more to the left or right.

It pre-dates 1975 and it's certainly not the early or mid 1960's. So... 1971 sounds like a fair guess.

Does nasal hair removal with a pair of tweezers count? A junior female I know did (daren't say who!). Very minor, and she wouldn't tell me what it cost, but I'd guess a couple of thousand. There's a lot better things to do with that sort of money than suffer pain.

It' OK, it's fully tax deductible - honestly! Comes packaged with our modern all-appearance, 10-second-sound-byte, society. And.. it can only get worse. You "read" The Sun don't you?

Meanwhile, at Barclays they have more immediate concerns... Apparently they don't know who their own chairman is! http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/7181741.stm So what hope is there that they can prevent your - Mr/Mrs J Bloggs - account being raided? Think on this the next time your card is embarrassingly refused for no sensible reason; purely in the interests of protecting you from fraud, of course!

That one has been going a few years now, and is a great effort. Quite difficult too as a lot of the material prior to modern videotape (around 1969/70 for the colour professional tape machines) is sadly lost forever. A lot of the early video tapes were wiped for re-use to save money. Dare I say that I remember almost all of the early programmes!

Thanks C. Where did this info come from? If it's a credible source I will follow it up.
