Usually TV out from a laptop is a S-Video output. Which is video. You also (usually) need a 3.5mm jack to get the sound out too.

I find the ironing to be more interesting that the TV at times... :eek:skint_spice wrote: »Yes, if you like your women sweaty and specky:o:rotfl:!
Nothing wrong with glasses, and don't they mist models to give them that alluring look?

You know what a 3.5 mm jack is - you've must have seen them on every set of headphones you've had.

Well as some of you already know from FB - blokey is no more, well he's not dead but if looks could kill he would be:(. Friend is coming over later to listen to me "rant or weep" so once that's done hopefully there will be a few laughs too. I'm sad but not devastated, I'll cope. Still have overwhelming desire to run all the time, wondering if it's phsycological and me wanting to run away from my problems:think:.

Ouch... :grouphug:
Was he just being the same kind of idiot, or was he trying out a new kind of idiocy?
Remember - you iz a babe.skint_spice wrote: »Friend is coming over later to listen to me "rant or weep" so once that's done hopefully there will be a few laughs too.
It's good that you have a friend's shoulder to cry on.skint_spice wrote: »I'm sad but not devastated, I'll cope. Still have overwhelming desire to run all the time, wondering if it's phsycological and me wanting to run away from my problems:think:.
It's because running makes you happy and you want to be happy.
You know where I am if you need to talk.skint_spice wrote: »Watching Strictly for the first time this series, not quite sure who some of the celebs are...
When MPs' wives are considered celebrities, then that sound you can hear is the bottom of the barrel being scraped through.

Whole new level:(.Remember - you iz a babe.
was all dressed up on friday and didn't even get a "you look nice" from him... did from others so it was ok but still...It's good that you have a friend's shoulder to cry on.
Actually there was no crying, she did agree there was no excuse for his behavour but said maybe there's something else going on I don't know. Not him seeing someone else but fear of committment or getting too close or something, anyhow both agreed he's a knob! Lots of laughter and catching up so it was just what I needed:cool:.It's because running makes you happy and you want to be happy.
It's in order to stop thinking as well I think, just me, my music and everything stops for a while.You know where I am if you need to talk.
Thanks, will do.When MPs' wives are considered celebrities, then that sound you can hear is the bottom of the barrel being scraped through.

It still made me laugh a bit but not what it used to be...Mortgage OP 2025 £6250/7000Mortgage OP 2024 £7700/7000

Re the running, it is valuable head clearing time, whether that head clearing is needed as a result of a tough day at work, trying to have an hour without thinking of the bills/kids/shopping that needs doing or to take an hour out of relationships/where am I heading/!!!!!! stuff.
You run because it is good for you - for that hour or so you are out there, you are bringing yourself back into balance. You are not running away from anything, you are creating a bit of headspace in order to sort out the things that need sorting out later on.
So don't stop running. Don't get obsessed with it, that is when it gets negative. But at this point in time, it is very positive, so embrace it!Successful women can still have their feet on the ground. They just wear better shoes.

Oh dear. He certainly doesn't appreciate the finer things in life.skint_spice wrote: »was all dressed up on friday and didn't even get a "you look nice" from him... did from others so it was ok but still...
You've already identified the root cause of that problem: He's a knob. It was not due to a lack of babe-ness on your part, as other non-knob people where only too eager to recognise.
Did that bloke recognise you with your clothes on?skint_spice wrote: »Actually there was no crying, she did agree there was no excuse for his behavour but said maybe there's something else going on I don't know.

Yes indeedy. Diagnosis: Knob. You could almost get a daytime TV series out of that...skint_spice wrote: »Lots of laughter and catching up so it was just what I needed:cool:.
