    BBC Stress Test

    When answered how I felt 6ish months ago I get a high stress output (quite a high number tbh) which would go with it. Now when I answer I get a nice low stress value of 10/32 Shows what a change of job can do
  2. What is on the floor below? Could you run under the floor and pop up in a floor box under the new desk location?
  3. Elphaba and paint yourself green or wear a green morph suit?
  4. You can only spend them on Purple, Hedgehogs and shiny things and the only available shipping address is to @Little-Miss's purple manor in the country with hedgehogs everywhere!
  5. Free Pre-Registration are you implying they are going to start charging this year ala other shows where if you register early its free but leave it too late you get £££ bill?
  6. Spray it all in purple and stick hedgehogs on it she will buy it I would suggest having a look at some HP or Lenovo kit I keep thinking I should replace the NC10 I have with a laptop and will look at those two when I save up enough to do so
  7. Very much agree the doors need adjusting to tighten up nice and tight or new seals fitting you can buy the seal in big packs and fit it yourself you can get thicker seals much better than sticky foam junk.
  8. @Ric_ has got his he was stalking ParcelForce all morning for it!
  9. As you have a lot how about 2.5" Dominoes around the place?
  10. I quite like them still some of them are funny but the repetitive one that is I need coffee in a morning style one is boring now as everyone seems to have that
  11. Have you contacted Netsupport Support Desk to see if they can help further?
  12. I'd give the baking a go ZH I've had good results with it on Laptop mainboards just don't let Mrs ZH see you using the best over tray or you maybe toast
  13. If I was to replace now I would look at using MS Lync particularly if you have a very MS centred system it is just brilliant how it all Lyncs into everything else I am really impressed with it
  14. Best one I had was a mast covering most of The City of London has been non-operational on 3G coverage since May! and was only just fixed last month so am less than impress just wish I had the hour spare each day to call and moan that I cannot keep internet on my phone across London so I can actually make calls and use data services as I go Stuck with them until next year but will have to look at something else other than EE after a 16 year relationship with them
  15. For Christmas I want a hover bike that I can take to work in a morning and home again in the evening Saves squishing on public transport with the great unwashed as I'm sure some people on my local public transport don't have showers
  16. Sad news I've enjoyed listening to my favourite song "Perfect Day" which is great
  17. Had issues with Orange (now EE) for months, network congestion, "Called Dropped" is a regular friend of mine, orange 2 orange calls rining once and going to voicemail saying they are unavaliable yet I can phone them on my landline or anothe phone and it works first time perfectly and the user is in full signal and not doing anything its a bit tiresome. EE support are oh yes we have had problems all is now better or oh well when you made that call we were near the capacity threshold so maybe you were just unlucky and hit the weak spot etc... I am great at getting that I am working from home today and my phone keeps loosing its EE signal and I'm sat at my desk not moving around the house and its a joke keep turning it off and on again to get it back on not great really.
  18. Do you have a large american population? I have a large Tesco Extra here where I am and we don't have a US food section just a large Asian section which seems to suit the local community given the fights of Chipatti flour and 5 gallon drums of oil at the weekend! I would like a US food section though
  19. We had clip on then swapped back to tie-able due to demand and defacing of clip on and then gone back to clip on as many people cannot tie a tie You will never win that one really. As for the school, I think the youthfulness of the SLT is a big plus for them, Mr Mitchell clearly realises that somethings will have to be relaxed for that school due to its location and socioeconomic state IE the high number of FSM. The uniform clearly isn't 100% perfect you can see that in all episodes yet I haven't seen too many blazing arguements over it, a few comments but that is it when I think about where I have worked and uniform it shows how other priorities are higher such as getting grades. The style of teaching show by many in the program is also modern and in some ways how my maths teacher taught me GCSE maths well over 10 years ago and how ahead of his time he was and show that not ever child responds with "I'm gonna sue you" for telling them they will fail or to get off there lazy backside and get on with some work. Full marks to him and his team it is a good way of working and I am sure there is many bad times for them and students but with that group of staff it will work well for them

    Movember

    See you in about what 30 years?
  21. I have used the above in many installations and temp setups with ground loops and all problems with audio humm were solved, you don't need an £80 box for that job usually
  22. Or maybe we could work something out a bit safer @Dos_Box given both myself and @Ric_ will be up near you at Christmas, I am in the car so could collect some from you then and bring back down in my car and then fetch along to BETT so that should reduce that issue significantly?
  23. How would that work, maybe more of a question for @Millgate as Office 365's downloadable copy of Office 365 is for 1 user to use on 5 PCs I thought not for any user to use on 5 PCs? Maybe I have misunderstood how Office 365 works? That is why I suggested EES as you just license the entire staff and then you have unlimited PCs on-site that are covered for any user be it staff or student and you just update the FTE count once a year at renewal.
  24. They put they all have a PC each plus 3 per classroom so thats 260 staff = 260 staff PCs plus 3x 20 classrooms = 320PCs
  25. Yes its been a good laugh and shows what a young and vibrant SLT can do in a school in my view, none of this namby pamby stuff !
