Chaps Although I am at work on that day and not able to attend, you are more than welcome to crash at my place (It will mean sleeping either on the floor or a camp bed/inflatable mattress) on the Wednesday night, head off to London by train (I can get to central London in about 30 mins door to door) on the Thursday, stay back at my place on Thursday and then we all head off in convoy on the Friday. Food and beverages included Priory B&B

I'm Pink therefore I'm Spam

If I sent you a dime could you pen me a little rhyme? perhaps a dollar more for one the dogz to holla' or even a buck to say who gives a damm Its that last line I am having trouble with...... Excellent work Toad, stirring stuff indeed.

We are a caring sharing bunch. I am sure someone will be happy to drop down into a separate room of our comms to help without disturbing the usual madness. Fruitbat is right, it is much easier to talk than type. regards Friar

Give me a shout next time, would be glad to welcome you over to the Priory I live just outside London, within easy reach on the train (about 20 minutes)

Welcome aboard M8, Might have to think about your nick as we already have a "zooley", and in the heat of madness, might get confuzzing..

Hi, @Arthur - Its just the box and keyboard+mouse (it does include £20 for a purple box, so the price is a little inflated) I dont think they would be into video editing, so no problem there. @FT - Ubunto not an option. I will pick up office from Software4students for them though. If it is to last a similar time, should I really be thinking about at least duel core? Regards Friar

Hi, A friend who has recently lost her partner wants to upgrade her pc (current one is about 7 years old). I have previously helped her sort out issues on it which is why she has asked me about replacing it. I have had a look on the Dell site this morning and found what I think is a machine that would suit her needs. Kids need it for home work and social media stuff and a bit of simple gaming (has got teenage girls so nothing too heavy) (Inspiron 570mt) My question is about processors, I am a bit out of touch with these. It comes with an AMD® Sempron™ 150 (2.9GHz, 1MB Cache) Where does this sit in the scheme of things, should I be looking at Intel, I3,5, or 7 Obviously budget is tight and the above machine is going for £294 4gb ram, 500gb hard drive Genuine Windows® 7 Home Premium, 64bit, English 4096MB Dual Channel DDR3 [2x2048] Memory DVD +/- RW Drive (read/write CD & DVD) with DVD Burn software Integrated ATI Radeon HD4200 Graphics Integrated 7.1 channel audio 19-in-1 Media Card reader 500gb (7200rpm) SATA Hard Drive Any thoughts against buying this machine? Cheers Friar

As a south Londoner who supports Crystal Palace FC, there is NO WAY ON THIS PLANET I will be associated with the song from Mill...I will leave it at that...

Welcome to the pound mate, first thing we need to sort out, your nickname, how do I pronounce it as in "male -e" in the heat of a dog fight we need to get it right, we have enough trouble when some of our group start screaming like little girls.......... I am here for your spiritual needs. If you feel you need to tell someone about your innermost fears or issues, I am your man. Cash will ensure confidentiality but they may be used if you get on my six ! Hope you stick around and become a regular contributor to our happy little camp. Please check out the Standing Orders thread, if you cant find it, I'll send you a link. It explains a bit more how we like to do things. Cheers and Salute. Friar

Pretty cool. Some of those could easily pass for full size/the real thing

Hay, Skypup, When are you staying over? If you are at a loose end we may be able to hook up somehow. I live on the outskirts of London. regards Friar

Simples... Cricket: As explained to a foreigner... You have two sides, one out in the field and one in. Each man that's in the side that's in goes out, and when he's out he comes in and the next man goes in until he's out. When they are all out, the side that's out comes in and the side thats been in goes out and tries to get those coming in, out. Sometimes you get men still in and not out. When a man goes out to go in, the men who are out try to get him out, and when he is out he goes in and the next man in goes out and goes in. There are two men called umpires who stay all out all the time and they decide when the men who are in are out. When both sides have been in and all the men have been got out, and both sides have been out twice after all the men have been in, including those who are not out, that is the end of the game!

a zebra crossing is a black and white striped area of a road that is marked up for pedestrians to cross at. A "Humped" crossing is one that has been raised in the road, bit like a speed hump (no that is not in, out, in out, "thanks miss" and leave)

This may be a stupid post but have you tried a different cable. I had an issue once on site where it was the cable preventing a proper connection. Just a thought. Friar

Hi Nage, Welcome to our little kennel. Any friend of Gec's needs help... Thanks for your kind comments. I look forward to seeing you there.
