    there is a common word that we all excrete..the substance is brown and it usualy stinks too..starts with an S ,ends with a T ,,and has an H and an I in the middle. cant say !*!@#.

    however...you can say baxxxxxds ,feckers and pxxs.

    what about poor old jonnie tourettes over here in ireland. somtimes i just cant !*!@# help it !!

  9. New Laptop

    in The Bedlingtonshire Consumer

    Posted

    Where is best for me to go for advice about the laptop I bought for my daughter for xmas that developed a fault in March (slack mouse button) and after I rang the company and booked the repair it developed another fault (big line down screen). It was taken away for repair and I was told it would take about 10 days. day 16 and no phone call or anything I rang and they said the part had been received day 5 but there was no further info... I complained as I said my daughter does online homework and needed it back. was told 2 ring next day as the canny lad spoke 2 would try n find out what was going on but he said I could e-mail a complaint (ooh.. and I did) to customer services.well, next day the laptop came back (though I never got an e-mail or phone call to say so as promised.. so prob my nasty e-mail got it back). all the data was still on n the mouse n screen was fixed... but the webcam wouldnt work. so I rang and they said try this n try that (took an age) and said to see if my daughter wanted to save any data n then ring next day and they would talk me through restoring laptop to factory settings. well I did and they said (after an age) the laptop would be like it was when we bought it.... so, my daughter had to install everything she wanted to and the bloomin camera still wouldn't work! they said it would when restored to factory settings!so- I rang again n they said try this n try that n as nowt worked they said it would have to go away for repair.. again! I went mad-saying the laptop must be faulty as its needed 2 parts new in a few months n now the camera not working? I demanded a replacement but they wont budge! my daughter says the laptop not the same since they did the restore to factory settings - she says its slow n the mouse is hard to move - and am getting nowhere with this big electrical company with my e-mails! I keep telling them she needs it for school and cant afford for it to keep going away for repair.. as well as pointing out I saved 6 months for it n paid bloomin cash!!!!! They wont replace it or as a gesture of goodwill loan her one if they take it away again! Advice someone please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!This is driving me mad

    Basically, take it to where you bought it from and tell them you want a replacement. By law they have to offer you a repair, replacement or refund, and will usualy do so in that order and since you`re getting no-where with repairs, get a replacement or refund.

  10. Good Jokes: Not For The Faint-Hearted (Adult content)

    in Chat Central

    Posted

    A man feared his wife wasn't hearing as well as she used to and he thought she might need a hearing aid.

    Not quite sure how to approach her, he called the family doctor to discuss the problem.

    The Doctor told him there is a simple informal test the husband could perform to give the doctor a better idea about her hearing loss.

    Here's what you do," said the Doctor, "stand about 40 feet away from her, and in a normal conversational speaking tone see if she hears you.

    If not, go to 30 feet, then 20 feet, and so on until you get a

    response."

    That evening, the wife is in the kitchen cooking dinner, and he was in the study. He says to himself, "I'm about 40 feet away, let's see what happens."

    Then in a normal tone he asks, 'Honey, what's for dinner?"

    No response..

    So the husband moves closer to the kitchen, about 30 feet from his wife and repeats, "Honey, what's for dinner?"

    Still no response.

    Next he moves into the dining room where he is about 20 feet from his wife and asks, "Honey, what's for dinner?"

    Again no response.

    So, he walks up to the kitchen door, about 10 feet away.. "Honey, what's for dinner?"

    Again there is no response.

    So he walks right up behind her... "Honey, what's for dinner?"

    (I just love this)

    "Ralph, for THE FIFTH !*!@# TIME, CHICKEN!"

    Good one :lol: :lol:

  12. Commotion In Bedlington

    in Talk of the Town

    Posted

    Bedlington was taken by storm earlier today, when rumour spread about the presence of The Real Renegade!

    All was quiet at around 2PM, then suddenly the area around Tesco, BestBite and the bandstand was awash with cars and people, all looking for the mystery man.

    Clues pointed to the Bandstand, BestBite, a Blue door, The drains outside the post office, then the renegade singing the Robin Hood theme.

    Earlier clues were worked out to be an anagram of Plessey woods.

    Did anyone see it? and more importantly... did you get involved??

    He`s was here between 12 and 2pm..or very close by. The web clue was `Following the pin... that's where I'll be... my rightful place... my bounty to see`

    I wonder if anyone has found him yet? The money is down to £1000 now and they had till 6 to find him.

    Looks like the problems solved! The lass that sent me the photo has just seen that video and she said that`s exactly what they looked like :D

    It`s a wonder that they`re not a regular sighting! Not many people must know about how to make them..well, they do now, so we may get an idea how many folk use this forum by tonight :lol:

  16. Mysterious Lights In Sky Tonight?

    in Talk of the Town

    Posted

    I got a call tonight at 10 o`clock from a friend telling me that there were 3 orange glowing lights in the sky and she didn`t know what to think! She hadn`t seen anything like it before. She spotted them over the Meadowdale Estate and they were heading in the direction of the Front Street. They were bright glowing orange and ascending slowly..When i asked what size they were she said `If you compare the size of aeroplane lights to a tennis ball, these were the size of footballs` :blink:

    She did manage to get a photo of them, although they look like little half moons on it..

    Did anyone else see anything or have an idea as to what they are?

  20. Carrington Colliery

    Posted

    The only reference i can find to Carrington Colliery, is that it was formerly known as `Wickham and Bullock Island Colliery, Carrington`. If this is the right colliery (and not Barrington) then you`d be best off searching for Bullock Island. There`s quite a bit info on Google.

    There`s a photo here too.

If u work 16 hours u get free school dinners, milk, trips, music lessons etc.. but if u workin full time on same wage u get nowt? so is labour looking after the working class? NO! will camerons lot? NO! Will the Liberals? NO! Will any of the local MP's do owt for bedders? NO! ANGRY.COM!!! Cameron said MPs are the slaves n we the masters. but they do not care about any of us!This country has gone 2 pot - nanny state, people better off on dole, crime, the nhs ..... an endless list! rant rant rant...... we all could do so about the state of this country... but who can we vote for to sort it out???? :angry:
