  1. I agree but we are stuck with it.
  2. I've just read that Capita will end support for XP and Server 2003 in Autumn 2013. Anyone know about this. I was hoping we could eak out our system for a little longer.
  3. A photocopier at the other end of the building and up the stairs. Amazing how discerning they become about what needs printing.
  4. We use these --|A069|MONO EARPHONE | CPC I can't remember where I got them but it was less than £1.00 each for 100 or so. OK, they are only mono but they do the job and in 5 years or so, I've had around 5 that have broken. Usually by kids chewing the lead! They are also hygienic.
  5. +1 for using a miniDV camera with IEEE1394 input and output. Most editing programs will control the camera just like a deck.
  6. We now know everything there is to know about flexyjerkov and his family Congratulations to you and your family.
  7. I got a note in my daughter's planner "Please do not show her your way of doing long division". The fact that she understood my method was irrelevant.
  8. The argument the travel people use is that they don't inflate prices during holidays, they just discount them at other times!
  9. Gove to ban term-time holidays - Yahoo! Meanwhile MPs can attend parliament as they see fit>
  10. Mattx was telling a girl in the pub about his uncanny ability to guess the day a woman was born just by feeling her bosom. "Really?" she said. "Go on then... Try." After about 30 seconds of him fondling she began to lose patience. "Come on," she demanded, "When was I born?" "Yesterday?" replied Mattx
  11. Might have been better if he'd hung the laptop up so we could see the exit wound.
  12. We had a teacher who got so badly stressed she just upped a left. She looked terrible. She got into landscape gardening and popped in a few months later. She looked great, happy and tanned.
  13. Stevie Wonder and Tiger Woods meet in a bar. Woods turns to Wonder and says, "How's the singing career going?" Wonder says, "Not so bad. How's the golf?" Woods replies, "Not too bad. I've had some problems with my swing but I think I've got that going right now." Stevie says, "I always find that when my swing goes wrong I need to stop playing for a while and not think about it. Then the next time I play it seems to be alright." Tiger says, "You play golf?" Stevie says, "Yes. I've been playing for years." Tiger says, "But you're blind. How can you play golf if you can't see?" Stevie says, "I get my caddie to stand in the middle of the fairway and call to me. I listen for the sound of his voice and play the ball towards him. Then, when I get to where the ball lands, the caddie moves to the green or further down the fairway and again I play the ball towards his voice." "But how do you putt?" asks Tiger. "Well, I get my caddie to lean down in front of the hole and call to me with his head on the ground, and I just play the ball towards his voice", says Stevie. Tiger asks, "What is your handicap?" Stevie says, "I'm a scratch golfer." Tiger, incredulous, says to Stevie, "We've got to play a round sometime." Stevie says, "Well, people don't take me seriously, so I only play for money, and never play for less than $10,000 a hole." Tiger thinks about it and says, "OK, I'm game for that. When would you like to play?" And Stevie says, "Pick a night."
  14. 10 day weather forecast for the Algarve 10 day Weather in Portimao - weather.co.uk Guess where I'll be next week Assuming flights out of Bristol aren't disrupted.
  15. There are loads of videos being posted at present but as much as I would like to, I don't have time to watch them all. But I'm glad I fired this up. Duo MainTenanT - YouTube
  16. They should have used a real one, far more realistic.
  17. We usually use suppliesfor schools but in this instance, they were a fair bit more experience. I emailed a question to myprojectorlamps.co.uk and got no response. In the end, I found a similar projector in the store cupboard and used that.
  18. They'll be able to afford mercenaries.
  19. God, I love a sheep in uniform
  20. With all the oil revenue, the Falklands can create their own army and come to our aid.
  21. Could this have anything to do with it>? BBC NEWS | Business | Oil billions beckon Falkland Islands
  22. I use Active User Manager Mikey Magic's Web Site - Active User Manager Not what you are looking for but might help someone else after ideas.
  23. Brains are line hard drives, there's only so much cr@p they can take and when they start getting full the performance drop right off. We have an ongoing issue with the PC viewer on the CCTV system. It regularly drops one of the DVRs and is a pig to get going again. I can never remember how I fix it, so last time I wrote down the instructions in my little notebook. I got called down because it had happened again, only to find I had left my notebook at home!
  24. We were on holiday when the kids were young and my wife was tired so I took them to one of those very big crazy golf places. When we left I drove out of the huge car park only to be stopped by the guy on the gate "Haven't you forgotten something sir? he asked. I then noticed in the rear view mirror, two little ones running and waving frantically.
