  1. Having failed on a bombing run on the Dunkirk coast, I try and make a run for it, only to be chased by a few angy hurri's.

    I put the plane into level autopilot and then jump from gun position to gun position in a desperate attempt to fend my attackers off.

    This is what they did to me......

  2. ok, sorted it (i think)

    i had shut the computer down for the night, was just having a last pee before bed, enjoying the solitude, the companionship....when it suddenly came to me. and iirc...there is a setting that traps the key, locks it from other applications. i must have had that ticked. will have a look when i get home tonight.

    many thanks for looking roger.

  3. humor me please...., go into one of the profiles, select the general tab and try and type in a description for the profile. try typing a word with an "a" or "e"

    i just have and the "a" and "e" does'nt work, and then does not work in microsoft word.

    re-boot, go back into word and they work again.

    wierd or what...or is it just me?

  4. i had a really great time on friday. although it was a long day for, i'm glad i stayed till the end.

    well done glen again.

    on the subject of a re-run. i'm all for it, i'd stay blue.

    as to the timings, a friday or saturday would be better for me (and i would also think the other uk guys) as when we finish it is getting on for 1:00am and i could not really do that on a work day.

  5. A previously unknown cut scene from the Disney classic "Mary Poppins" has just been discovered. It was cut from the original motion picture as it thought that some of the language used was not suitable for the target audience.

    Scene 4 - "It 'aint fair Mary Poppins"

    Bert and Mary sitting on a smokey roof top. Bert's face slightly smudged with soot.

    Bert: It 'aint bleedin fair Mary Poppins

    Mary: Why Bert whats wrong?

    Bert: I goes and gets rid of me second joystick, a lov'ly fing she waz, and then spend flippin' ages sorting out the key mappings so's I gets it just right. Then I goes and buys trackir, again I spends me time getting it jusssst right, me wife finks me piles are back i waz fidgitin' about on me chair so much.

    Mary: Wipes small tear from Bert's eye, smuding the soot even more.

    Bert: Then I have a touch of luck and land me self a 5 speaker surround sound system and gets a beautiful noise from me 109 cannons..(gazes up to sky with whistful look)....and now I'm off on soddin hollyday, it aint fair Mary Poppins.

  6. a chap i help out has just got a new dell computer.

    he ordered surround sound as an extra. the computer arrived fine but they sent him a european plug version of the sound system. he was getting nowhere with dell so i called them on his behalf. to their credit dell sent out a complete uk sound system to me no probllem and did not want the wrong one back.

    i installed it for him last night.

    i then took the euro one off his hands for him, cut off the plug, re wired it and now i have surround sound !!!!!!!

    ....unless someone with electrical knowledege is going to tell me that i have done something wrong?
