    What Becky said sounds convincing to me! :D

    I actually didn't know there was such a thing as a wireless printer :rolleyes: :o...presumed it was a printer that sends/receives info via the wireless network.

    Your wireless network only 'exists' if your wireless router is plugged in and working by the way - it's the router that converts your broadband to a wireless network - so you don't need to worry about anyone piggybacking it unless you set the new router up. You must have set up a secured network on your previous router, otherwise next-door's au pair would just have been able to piggyback it without a password. So if you do the same on this one, then 'accidentally' forget to give the kids the password....:shhh: :cool:

    Still no contact from Mr Sunday...he is due home anytime now...just hoping everything is okay for tonight. Going to assume it is, and get ready and pack my stuff. So if he cancels, I will need a party to go to...!!!

    Snaggles, I nearly went into Debenhams today. I was walking past and saw an ad in the window for a chunky cardigan at £7.50... then realised it was a kids one and carried on walking.

    The one in the centre? Or White Rose? I rarely venture into Leeds city centre during the day, as the White Rose Centre is a 2 mile walk or a few minutes in the car (depending on how seriously I am shopping...lol) from my house. It all seems to be going downhill a bit though, the staff seem to think the company is struggling, money is very tight etc...the aircon in there has been broken all summer, so they have just had electric fans dotted around. I will be traumatised if it shuts!!! :rotfl:

    The one in the city centre - I'm a 5 minute drive/15 minute walk from the city centre, so I go there a lot. Wow, Debenhams going bust would be massive, Probably the biggest shop name to go under.

    I noticed today there's still a sign up from the run in June!

    I always do wonder with debenhams who they can keep having those 25% off days & still make a profit.Mind you I also think how overpriced the stuff must be for them to do the 25% IYSWIM.

    I agree Beanie, although the 25% days usually tend to be midweek, so a lot of people can't actually get there. I do find it really overpriced for most things though, wandering from one franchise to another you see similar things but the prices go up by loads when you get to the 'designer' areas.

    I can't believe I'm stuck in waiting for someone from freecycle to collect two lightbulbs. He didn't even give a time, just said 'on his way back from work'. I'm giving him till 6.30, cos I need to go out and take all my sister's crap that's been in my car for weeks back to her.

    I think there might be two types of wireless printer - ones for wireless networks (i.e. offices) and ones for home use that work like wireless mouse (i.e. they can be elsewhere in the room and no need for cables...but again I could be wrong... ZZZZZZ where are you!
