I'm so impressed, your all so techy, I dont know the first thing about comps I still havnt found out how to copy the texts in here or send in photos

You don't know the first thing about computers, huh? So who's writing and sending your posts for you?

If you want to copy text (I presume you mean quote some or all of a previous post) click on the (oh bums, got to go back and have a look now - this short term memory prob is a right pain in the ...) click on the 'quote' button in the box of the message you want to reply to.

You can then either just type your message under the final [ / quote ] tag (I've put spaces in there, or it mucks up the quote mechanism) which would quote the whole message first, or you could delete the bits of the message you don't want (but be careful you don't chop off any of the quote tags or it won't work) and it'll quote the specific bits you want.

Once you've mastered that bit, if you want, I can try and help you with things like multi-quoting (not as difficult as it sounds) and pics, etc.

Pic of CwtA's puddy tat[/IMG]

She's a gorgeous puss, CwtA - in fact looks very similar to a couple of the cats I had, except mine were all boys, but that pic ain't 'alf mucking up the size of the screen.

I suspect that you're now reasonably advanced on me, if only 'cos I won't upgrade to Vista. Having finally got XP working as I want it, I really don't want to have to start all over again with yet another operating system. As for Office 2007...

S_e unless you have more than ample RAM (like 3-4gb) I really wouldn't bother. All Vista will do is slow your system right down! I'm running laptop with 1gb and it's driving me crazy how slow it goes... but I can't be @rsed with the faff of taking it off and starting again with XP. (Plus I like the Vista versions of the Windows games :rolleyes:)

Very pleased you've got your heating back on Cwta and hope you manage to successfully claim back some money for the eleccy etc. It's all faff that should really be unnecessary, in an ideal world, innit?

Suep - cheers. I am still on 20mg of Ami as well as my (whatever it is) mgs of pregabalin. (Writing this just reminded me I've forgotten to take it, again!, this morning...well, I say "morning", but we all know I mean "early afternoon" :rolleyes:)Seems to be working ok so far.

I've made an appt for tomorrow arvo with GP and couldn't remember for the life of me why last night I'm still not totally convinced! :rotfl:

I've been to the dentist this afternoon. £44.10 (:eek:)and a weird filling later and you'd think it'd be sorted..? Not so. I've discovered that he may've filled the gap...but not to the edges of the gap to the shape of the tooth. So I still have sharp bits. Grrr. :mad: And he'll wonder why I don't wanna hand over £350-500 to do a decent crown on my front tooth next!

BZ, I'm afraid axel has made me go all soppy. What a beautiful boy.

Cheers dude. He might be ex's in theory - but we both know he's really mine

I decided very early on when they started pushing Vista that I was hanging on to my current OS until the next OS at least. Apparantly there's a new one due out in the next couple of years, which should fix a lot of the current 'issues'.

T/S's employers spent literally millions (I think in $ rather than £) upgrading all their computers to Vista, only to downgrade again after a couple of months 'cos basically it was pants. It was slowing the pooters down too much and virtually none of the other programmes/applications were compatable with it. T/S appears to be the only one in the company still using Vista, but like I say he's a bit of a geek when it comes to pooters.

raeh

hello :wave: its sooooooooo coooooooold!!!

CwtA i bet you are so relieved to have heating and hot water again i hope you enjoyed your bath

thank you CwtA and BZ for the animal pics axel is a handsome chap, im a sucker for a big dog

BZ its awful when you have to pay out for the dentist isnt it? its as bad as paying for prescriptions :rolleyes: i hope they manage to sort the tooth out so you dont have the sharp bits

sue if i can master the multi quoting then theres hope for anyone

s/e glad you got the laptop sorted out. Iv lost count of the times iv had to sort out virus' on the pc's when the kids have clicked on things :mad: they arent supposed to use my laptop for that reason but still they find their way onto it!!
talking of kids, youngest got off ok on his trip with barely a backwards glance :rotfl: i nipped out of class to wave them off and he gave a quick wave and then carried on with his conversation :rolleyes:

I would suggest setting a password on it so they can't log on - if they can't log on, they can't infect it.

I don't blame you. It may look a bit nicer, but it really is less than impressive. I have a few apps that won't function on my laptop...which as I'm sure you can imagine, is very annoying.

By the way, nice to have you back:)

Hi Raeh. You're right it is flippin freezing! Axel is rather lovely. OH wants alsation(s) but I know what it's like to live with Axel and I fear it's far more hassle than it's worth He turns round (to follow me EVERYWHERE) and swipes EVERYTHING off the coffee table with a swish of his oversized tail. They're just too big for me I think. Unless you've got a big ol' farm house that is.

We're off out tonight at like 7.30. We've not had tea, I haven't had a shower or done the obligatory straightening of hair... hands up who thinks all that's gonna happen before we go...?
