  • Works fine for me.
  • Must have been one of my moments as its working fine now. Although there is an option on the login screen to change language that i'm sure wasn't there this afternoon. Perhaps this is for use on the Dubai visits.....
  • Gutted, for the first time in doing hundreds of shops I have hit the wrong store. It was only a five pound fee but the shop has ended up costing me £5 as I had to make a purchase and bought a DVD I wouldnt have usually. Never mind
  • Tbh I think the only reason I have lots at the moment is because I'm willing to travel 100 miles in any direction and I travel a lot for work. Locally there's not much about.

    I live in the north east and am finding there has been loads in the first few weeks of 2011. I have picked up more shops than ever over the short two week period from about the 3rd until now. And thats only within a 20 mile or so radius and living in a small town with no car

    Don't talk to me about printers, i spent all weekend researching the damned things. I looked at loads in my price range but there was always some issue with them, cheap printers= paper jams, expensive inks not compatible (eg only uses internet explorer, window 2000 etc), expensives inks, only paper no card, expensive inks. I finally settled on the Epson stylus SX515w ( pretty good all round and accepts compatible inks) but the cheapest seller was Amazon £71. 99 ( then £79.99 now £82.99)

    I was still tempted to buy the thing till i found out that only two weeks ago i could have picked it up for £45.

    I'm still looking :mad:

    If only printing in black and white is ok, have a look at Samsung lasers. A toner cartridge lasts for months, and when it's empty, you can unscrew it and refil it with toner for under a tenner :money:

    I guess that's why I've got very little work then :p:D
    Here I go again on my own....

    Q27 - Please name and describe the member of staff who served you.

    Ah another Team Mel-ism I love it. I hate the fact they want you to put "no glasses" well duh If I didn't say she was wearing any then obviously she wasn't.

    But what is the point? I know for a fact that the member of staff is the manager and she receives all the MS reports!
