    Maybe Bully will send her hubby over to do them with some rinseaid:cool::cool:


    Do you know years ago we had a window cleaner who offered to do the outside windows and charge us and then the inside ones for free.

    We had moved into a brand new house and I think he made the offer to make sure he got the round.

    But we all said no, we would do the inside, he can do a few outside cleans for free instead and he did, for about 3 months.:rotfl:then back to normal paying for the outside.

    @ CW, you are welcome glad it has gone to good home. Not for your IS:p.


    @ CW again - if you want you can come to me office & collect 2 or 3 printers that we are no longer using. 1 canon & 1 Epson and I don't know where is the other one which is Dell! Can't remember whats wrong with them. I think its printing but not very good quality.

    My son knows how to network, he has set networks up for other people, but we didn't want wires trailing around really from one room to the other. (in case I trip:(:().

    My computer is really old (my sons cast off) but he is always changing hard drives, system installs etc, its in my room with its own printer (the broken one atm).

    My son has 2 computers in his room, one for games and his main one. The main one won't install coupon printer at all so no coupons off that.

    I have used the games one for coupons once but my son won't keep doing system installs as he uses it for games (when he gets a chance).

    So no option but to either fix the broken one or buy a new one. He will get one off ebay in the next week or two.



    Update - just mentioned it again to my DS and he said he will think about it. So might get lucky with it.

    CW do you have wireless internet?If all the relevant computers are connected to that you can set a wireless network up no bother(assuming your on a pc and not a mac).Then as blue says print from anywhere

    Need him here at the moment I'm afraid as he's very busy at the moment.....
    He has always painted the exterior of our house every 5 years, but he has decided that he does not want to do that anymore( he says he is getting too old to be climbing ladders) so he is replacing the soffits/facias and guttering so will only have the stucco to paint ...which he can take his time with.

    CW, who is your ISP? Virgin?

    2 options here :-

    1) Call them tell them porky story - modem not working properly, well thats what I told them couple of years ago - They sent me the wireless modem instead & its FOC.

    If above fail then I can offer you Netgear wireless router:-

    2) We have spare wireless modem but I need to ask permission from me boss 1st (at the mo he is on holiday thats is why I am on here :rotfl::rotfl:- to let it go - I know we no longer use it & its in the cupboard collecting dust;)

    Congrats Bully :beer: Fitflops are good brand & comfy too. I bought mine on ebay:rotfl::rotfl: brand new & almost half the price. Bought one from Clogg with their £10 off & paid £30 (Walkstar 3 white) which I find very expensive then went to have a look at ebay & got another pair for less than £20 (electra silver). Now waiting for Petra Black on ebay;)

    They are all for my SIL who asked me to get it for her.

    Rubbersole seems expensive. Clogg are cheaper.
