If that's the case, they can flush it away for me.

You expect MPs to have morals?

Not sure who should replace it, but the supply teacher should be given a lesson in common sense regarding not leaving valuables unsecured.

I feel silly for not even thinking of that. Thank you bio.

But there are certain cliques on this forum, that seem to thank certain folk no matter what they post. Thus making it a pointless addition. I have used it myself a few times though.

As long as we don't go down the "Hugz n' Kissez" route that forums like Money Saving Expert do then I'll be happy. Though I do struggle to see the point of having a "thanks" function.

Mach 3 has generally been fine, but have recently moved onto Supermarket own brands as I have discovered that the key to a great shave is to lather up using a shaving brush in order to properly soften and loosen your stubble. My face is smooth as a babies botty and so are my legs. (Both the above are jokes - I shave on average once a week due to simply not being bothered.)

In their infinite wisdom, Microsoft decided not to include by default, a much loved tool called disc cleanup, in server 2008. You have to install the "Desktop experience" in order to get it. However this also installs the following, and completely unnecessary rubbish: Windows Calendar Windows Mail Windows Media Player Windows Aero™ and other desktop themes Video for Windows (AVI support) Windows Photo Gallery Windows SideShow™ Windows Defender Sync Center Sound Recorder Character Map So my question is, does anyone know how to just install disc cleanup on server 2008?

Shame they've put the old disclaimer in about it just being for personal use and that Techies need a license. However, seen as it is portable, how would they know?

Have you tested the product to see if it's usable in a school environment or are you just trying to get a feel for interest?

True, but sometimes it's best to make an example of idiots.

This thread is a great antidote to the rubbish about how the IT industry apparently needs to grow up.

That answers the question for me. It's management that needs to grow up, and I don't think that's exclusively in the world of I.T either.

I have no problem with Teachers using useful resources. It's the reprehensible attitude some of them have regarding Sparklebox even when told why the site has been blocked. I also find it worrying that they rely so much on one resource. Call me old fashioned.

I don't see the bit on the BBC website where it mentions that even though some teachers were aware of the allegations, they shrugged their shoulders and demanded access to Sparklebox, as without it, they didn't have a clue what to do.

I like Comic Sans.

Folk would think it strange if he announced it in a Curry house or McDonalds.

Hey, don't throw it out. Still part of my "arsenal". Saved my Bacon recently.

Boom Boom.

But by the time you have coded it, the Government will have moved the goal posts and be demanding data that your system hasn't catered for. They will move these goal posts about a month before a Census is due. Why are there so many people employed in Local Education Authorities who know nothing about anything? Welcome to the forum and good luck if you decide to create your own. A bit more competition to knock down prices and kick others up the backside would be welcome.

Can't go wrong with these.

O0h you sneaky Devil. I saw what you did there. Enjoy.

Twas tongue in cheek, hence the smileys.

I can accept you don't like the Simpsons, but dear God, please stop using the word season. Never has such an insignificant little word made my blood boil so much. Series old chap, Series!

If they are viewing pictures then a child has already been harmed, otherwise there wouldn't be any pictures to look at.
