  1. And lets not forget Arthur Swindley, Alf Roberts, the corner shop proprietor, Elsie Tanner, Ernest Bishop - killed in a botched robbery, Brian Tilsley (married to Gail - poor B*****d,) stabbed to death in a fight, (wasn't as hard as he made out, apparantly) Ivy Tilsley, Tracey Barlow, Eddie Yates (my favourite) Curly Watts, ............
  2. Diet out the window then mate???
  3. Qantas After every flight, Qantas pilots fill out a form, called a "gripe sheet," which tells mechanics about problems with the aircraft. The mechanics correct the problems, document their repairs on the form, and then pilots review the gripe sheets before the next flight. Never let it be said that ground crews lack a sense of humour. Here are some actual maintenance complaints submitted by Qantas' pilots (marked with a P) and the solutions recorded (marked with an S) by maintenance engineers. P: Left inside main tire almost needs replacement. S: Almost repl
  4. When I had my first 'pint' many moons ago, and my liver was a bright pink, it cost 1/11p What did you pay for yours? - and how old were you?
  5. Com'n Bazzer - don't be shy mate. Just NAME & SHAME. We'd all like to know who you are talking about !!
  6. Hi Rob Download 'Clean up' here http://www.stevengould.org/index.php?Itemi...t&task=view it's quite safe, and I use it all the time. When you have downloaded it, don't click on the 'Demo' option - it takes some time and doesn't really do anything. I'll wager a bet you will have a much improved hard drive after. It certainly sounds like it's your browsing history that is causing the hard drive to fill up.
  7. Norton reserves quite a lot of the hard drive to make 'back ups' - an ongoing thing just in case something happens. It could be that the 'reserved' hard drive space has been upgraded by Norton. NORTON - I wouldn't have it on any of my machines even if you gave it me for free. http://uk.ask.com/web?q=norton++problems&a...1627709&c=1
  8. Hi Rob Go to 'Start' My Computer And then hover your mouse over the disc drives shown. Does this 'FREE' figure compare with what Norton is telling you?
  9. There is a goods lift at the other end of the building, going down to the basement loading bay, accessed from Newton car park around the back.
  10. Yeah, and mine says LUDO And when I'm in a good mood it says LLlllaaaaaandudno !laughing!
  11. It was on the early morning news yesterday that 558 will not be appearing due to engine problems. Still a nice place to spend the day though.
  12. When you find somewhere in the Uk that's fit's the bill, let us know and we might just end up as neighbours !laughing! I won't hold my breath though.
  13. 'fraid not. I worked for the EM Gas Board as an apprentice gas fitter upon leaving school. It was the gas board who did all of the gas fitting pipework. I remember the site hut - tea mashing equipment, primus stove - and a big Tea Chest in the corner full of copper pipe offcuts!! I think they used to call the work - carcassing - fitting the pipework as the buildings went up.
  14. I worked on the Rise Park estate in 1967 when I left school. The estate started at the bottom of the hill near to Hucknall Road. One of the first roads was Brownlow Drive which runs from the bottom of the hill to the top in a crescent semi circle. At the time, the shops and Charles II was also being built. The only other buildings in the area were the WestGlade and EastGlade schools. The rest was just fields. Rise Park to the right of the main road was built later, then Pine Hill, Heronridge and then Top Valley, which I think consisted of 5 phases. Bigwood and Warren hill followed after. I r
  15. Would he be the original (second, third, fourth and fith(sp?)letter) from Scunthorpe, by any chance !rotfl!
  16. What should it have said Robt? .......he should be in Borstal........ !rotfl!
  17. Baz, Beefy Download this program and try it free for 30days. From what I understand, it is quite good at deleting the Tojans including the .dll ones. http://www.spamfighter.com/Spywarefighter/Default.asp Ian Have a read of this, it mentions the trojan returning if you don't erase it properly - seems like what you have mate http://www.pcontech.com/spyware/remove/tro...zlob-remove.htm
  18. Baz A Macro is just a recording of a simple or complex set of keystrokes that save you time. You can delete them all if you want. It sounds like you have inadvertantly set up some Macro's without knowing it.
  19. Hi Baz Open MS Word then click ALT + F8. This will bring up a Macro box where you can highlight any Macro's you do not want and then click the 'Delete' button. This should stop the problem.
  20. Geez - I nearly had to direct you to one of the other forums I Moderate and Mick frequents now and again! If it's a single compressor unit doing both Freezer and Fridge, then there are a few things that go wrong. This one sounds like it was the defrost heater stuck on. I'm assuming that it's a frost free item, so, every now and then, the compressor switches off and the defrost heater comes on to clear the evaporator of any ice build up. Sometimes, either the defrost sensor has come loose, gone out of calibration or the relay sticks. As it's now working again, my advice would be to unplug it
  21. You need to get yersen a tripod fer macro work Beefy lad. Good shots though. 7/10 !clapping!
  22. I got caught up in the traffic jam they caused!!!!! What a stupid time of day to do it - morning rush hour. Prats.
  23. Wasn't there a change in the law just recently whereby they can now just view the offence and issue the ticket by post?
  24. That's the one. But later on it was renamed to Toppers or something?
