    Morning all :wave:
  • Good morning all, a bit misty here but promises to be a nice day.

    I will go back to work one day but I took time out to be a stay at home mum and then with elderly parents went straight into caring without a break. Giving myself a well deserved break now. ;)

    Must admit I am bit scared about going back to work like Rhosynbach said she is. It is frightening going into the unknown my skills are now obsolete. I worked in IT pre windows. :eek: :rotfl:

    That brings back memories. When I was working in the FO we had a computer, you could get a whole side of A4 on a 7 inch floppy disc, you had to load up every programme before you could use it, no such thing as an operating system! I had great fun programming the F keys though, I was head admin in the department so controlled the computer, nearly got thumped with one of the things I programmed into an F key that I knew a welsh bloke used though :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
    What is this life if, full of care, we have no time to stand and stare

  • The tresemme red box is a goer - it's still in the 3 for 10, compares against Ts @ £3.49 each

    That would give a £7 apg?

    Can I ask a techie question?

    My printer keeps printing APGs with a blank bit through the middle, regardless of what size I print it at. All other coupons print without problem. Any ideas as to what could be causing this? I haven't changed the colour cartridge yet as it would usually tell me if it was running out and the current one hasn't been in there that long. Anything else I could try before potentially wasting a cartridge? TIA

    Can you do some maintenance on your printer...clean heads, alignment etc

    Usually only takes a few mins to run through, might do the trick

    Thanks, just need to find a product that's £3 in asda and about a quid in tesco to bump it up a little :)

    The £4/£1 toothbrushes will take it over £10
