Ah, Burnley. Cobbled streets, terraced houses, Turf Moor, Harry Potts, the Jimmys McIlroy and Adamson, Brylcreem, Last Tango in Padiham, jumpers for keeping the cold out. I agree with webman. It's a very tricky situation dealing with neighbours, and things can escalate if not handled carefully. You're a good neighbour, remember that, and may we all live to be 80.

I assume you've gone to File>Preview in Browser>Edit Browser List and selected the correct version of IE? I've just checked mine and its still set to IE7, which doesn't exist on my machine any more.

The new owner of Channel 5, Richard Desmond also owner of the Daily and Sunday Express, and Daily Star, and a stable of adult magazines may be responsible for this slide into mediocrity.

This handy portable on/off switch will do the trick. And if you bought a new tv recently, as I did before Christmas, they may come with this handy "Energy Saving Switch", which if memory serves me correctly, used to be called the Off switch.

It is the filtering from the MSP. Blocked as a Proxy Anonymizer.

I've been using this extension on our school website without any problems until this morning when I noticed that though the module container and title appeared on the page, the actual translation bit was missing. I haven't made any changes which could affect this recently, just update the newsletter. It could be the filtering provided by our MSP, but so far there's been no reply from them. Anyone else encountered this?

There are many reasons for wanting to return to a previous pupil's work, such as, "Hang on, haven't I just seen the exact same paragraph in little Johnny's assignment?" But thanks anyway.

When marking assignments (in Moodle) teachers have the ability to Save and show Next [assignment], or simply move on the Next [assignment]. I have been asked if there's a Back button to move to a previous assignment in the list. does this exist? I can't find anything on the Moodle forums.

Thank you. If you have any spare time, I hope you get to spend it with the family.

I'd selected the wrong Menu Item Type, Category List Layout, rather then Category Layout. Numpty.

I can't find the setting(s) to get the actual (thumbnail) gallery of pics to display in the centre panel, rather than display thumbnail links to all the galleries. Unfortunately, most of the help pages on the Phoca site appear to be blocked by our MSP.

It appears that external power failures, four so far this year, caused the Cron job to fail. Re-installing and reconfiguring has sorted this out.

Sorry for the delay in getting back. I couldn't restore from course backup as backups had stopped operating back in January of this year, and this event was post January. This seems to have come about due to a series of external power failures causing the Cron job to fail at some point, despite being set to start automatically in Services. Re-installing and reconfiguring this seems to have restored the back up process. The full database was being backed up correctly, but due to illness and work I never got round to restoring this way.

"...the Osbornian criticism of his inheritance [from Labour] has been willfully overdone. I have pointed out before that, despite Brown's trial separation from Prudence, Britain encountered the global financial storm with net public debt at a relatively low level historically, and that even now, at 58% of gross domestic product, the ratio is far below the almost 250% of earlier "golden" years.Osborne complains that the "structural" deficit – that is, that part of the deficit not explained by cyclical fluctuations – was the worst in the Group of Seven in 2007, having been the second best in 2000. Well, so what? For a start, there is much professional dispute about how one distinguishes between "cyclical" and "structural" elements. So-called "structural" deficits can easily disappear in a period of rapid growth. Indeed, the 2007 structural deficit of which Osborne complains – 3.5% of GDP, according to the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development – compares with OECD-measured structural deficits of 5.2% in 1992, 6.6% in 1993, 6.2% in 1994, 5.6% in 1995 and 4% in 1996, under – guess what? – the last Conservative government."

No it isn't.

I admit that I had to Google that.

I think it's referred to as irony.

Of course the right to buy your council house has nothing to do with the shortage of affordable accommodation? Once these dwellings are removed from the market, buying becomes the only option, and with the big housing companies buying up land, and not building on it, or allowing anyone else to build on it, the shortage increases house prices. Which in turn leads to people borrowing ridiculous amounts to get on the first rung of the house owning ladder, and makes for higher profits for said companies. Incidentally, the last time I looked, Bangladesh had the highest number of home owners, whist Switzerland had the highest number of rented properties.

You report "disappointing" borrowing figures for February (Report, 23 March) and sympathise with the chancellor's budget dilemma. Net borrowing now stands at £875bn which is supposed to make Osborne's eyes water. But this is still only 58% of GDP – within the Maastricht limit of 60%. Servicing this debt still costs less than 3% GDP – far less than the 5.15% reached under Thatcher – who, incidentally, understood Gordon Brown's golden rule and heavily borrowed her way out of recession. Get some perspective. Saville Kushner
