Thanks for the reminder - I've got two boys of 3 and 5, and another one due to pop out any day soon. The pooing had faded from my memory.......

A picture is going to speak a thousand words here, but if the internal light is working normally, with the exception that your outside light needs to be off for it to work at all, and you kind of remember a small red link wire in the switch, I would hazard a guess at the following....... The...

In my son's bedroom is a dimmer switch, which I turn down low whilst he goes to sleep. However, he keeps on turning it up bright and keeping himself awake, and it is winding me up so, I have decided that what I need is some sort of key-switchable fixed dimmer, to set a (low) maximum brightness...

Right - I now have Broadband up and running. Because of where my village is, we were only ever told we'd get a 1Meg service and, according to the connection box, we are running at 1.1 Megs, even with my 15m extension. However, I now have an additional question. Because of the way I have...

"The sun's hot today....." - obviously - it's a huge fireball, millions of miles in diameter !!

Back to the original question, the answer is eyes...... We all know how evolution is supposed to work. One Giraffe gets born with a slightly longer neck, has a bit of an advantage, his descendants start to win out until a slightly longer necked giraffe gets thrown up, and so on. But eyes...

Were there any short power cuts on this wet & windy night ? Many of these lights have a 'permanent on' facility, where you have to power off then on again quickly to make it work. Do like Breezer says and turn them off for a few minutes. If you haven't got a switch fitted for the lights...

Don't apologise - We've seen worse........ Posting an opinion's what its all about :wink:

I watched Police Academy again the other night - Do you remember how, when it came out, it was seen as being the funniest film ever. It was only the 6 sequels that spoilt it. To quote Homer, when Bart is caught stealing..... "I always brought you up to respect law and order. Why do you...

No worries!! I think I know what the other thing you thought I was getting at was too, but no - it was just about this story and no other - The other thing has been more than amply covered of late. Apparently a few papers have been carrying the 'single note' story today - Sounds like the...

Erm.....No hidden meanings intended - Just that some reports are now saying he wasn't quite as much of a piano virtuoso as we were originally led to believe.

I must admit, I thought he was just putting it on, as a prelude to some publicity for a record coming out in the future, but I guess he's strung it out for a bit too long now for that to be true. I've heard that the story about him being a piano virtuoso now boils down to him drawing a...

Groovy, Man ! :wink:

OK, I let this ride the other day when you did it on the do-gooding hippy post, but I have to ask now..... WHY DO YOU KEEP CALLING ME JS ?? Is it some Trigger, Rodney, Dave Thing ? :lol:

Ferris Bueller's Day Off for me - I see a new gag every time I watch it !!
