    Snow, what snow?

    We have snow to the west, to the east, to the south, even to the north of here, apparently quite a lot of it, but we have seen none of it here - nowt, but clear, blue skies throughout.

    Firefox, slowing down.

    After a while of use, especially if I open lots of tabs, I'm finding Firefox slows down the loading of websites, to a crawl. This happens, even if I close the unwanted tabs, to get it back to my basic ones. FF 146.0.1 64bit, on Win11 - thought it seems to have always been a problem. The fix, is...

    Service charge

    I ordered burger and chips, for delivery, a few weeks ago and paid via card. The bill, presented at the end of the ordering process, was the cost of the burger, the delivery, then a service charge on top. Is a service charge normal for such things, and what actual service, on top of the basics...

    PIR switch

    I'm busy faffing about with an Elkay, PIR replacement for a wall switch. Which I used to have, in the utility room, to switch the light on, when you walked in there, with your hands full. It worked fine, until the wall switch position, became hidden behind a new freezer, so I replaced it with...

    Free photo repair software

    I've just come across this and it's great at both repairing photos, damaged by age, lost colour, creased etc., it is also good at modifying the photo, increasing, or reducing the age of the apparent subject of the photo, fitting/removing glasses, changing hair style. You just paste the photo...

    BBCi - so dark?

    I've had this before, on BBCi, so not a one off.... I missed the start of 'The war between land and the sea', and so thought to take a look on BBCi, except the picture is unwatchable, it's so very dark. I know our TV is a bit lacking in brightness, but it's set up at maximum. Yet, watching via...

    Scam mail

    I seem to have got my home address, on some sort of scammers list, or at least I keep getting mail, addressed to a corrupted version of my name. How do I trace back the source of the list?

    What is the point, of having a Royal Mail?

    Several weeks ago, I complained to RM about letters being delivered delayed, and in batches, along with junk mail. I also signed up to NOT receive junk mail. I received an apology from RM, and for a few weeks, the junk mail also stopped. This morning, another yet batch of mail, and a pile of...

    Immigrants, to pass A level English, or out

    I think that will exclude 99.9% of the immigrants, but such a test, would exclude 95% of the white British in the UK ;-)

    5Kv flex

    I've been repairing a very compact 35w HPS wall mount fitting, which had a failed e-ballast. The original ballast, fit precisely, inside the case of the fitting, but replacements of the original ballast are very expensive/near unobtainium. This, is to replace a LPS fitting, high on my house...

    Kissing (BBC)

    They said (BBC) we, and animals, have been doing it around 21 million years - now, how could they possibly know that? They also don't know why we, and animals do it - but do it, they do.... Our last dog, used to make a feint of bitting your nose, then it would turn in to a kiss.

    Sayings which stick with you, through your life

    From school days, The Goons I think.. He's fallen in the water. Writing the time down, on a bit of paper, so you always know what time it is.

    House insurance

    Oh what fun - Hastings Direct... It's coming up to renewal time, HD wrote to me, including my renewal proposal, and a letter saying they had tried to email me the renewal, but it had bounced - well it would do, I no longer have access to that old address. I then logged into my online account...

    Medical question + hernia

    On Saturday morning, I got a feeling of having stepped on a drawing pin, with my right foot. Not quite as painful as that, but.. The pain was quite localised, just to the rear of the ball of my foot, no sign of damage to the skin, no mark, nothing, but I wasn't able to put any weight on the...

    Reform

    My uncle is over 100, he fought in D-day, and he thinks that Nigel Farage is the right man to sort Britain out. He says he reminds him of one of the commanders that he fought alongside with distinction. In the next few weeks he's going to auction off his medals and donate all of the money to...

    Has anyone managed to make any sense of Patchs?

    My docs surgery, has stopped using Sytmonline, for many appointments, which was all fairly obvious to the user, and is now insisting patients use a thing called Patchs, for all messages, and to try to make appointments. It's near impossible, to get as far as actually making an appointment, it...

    Trackers

    I've just been watching a TV program, about how the track down stolen vehicles fitted with trackers. They seem to be suggesting, that the tracker signal, includes the GPS location data, but they seem to struggle in that the GPS data lacks accuracy, once they get near, and they then have to...

    Mobile, not dialing certain numbers

    Way back when, I had a company mobile, which strangely, simply refused to dial a certain w/salers number - not the cell, it was the same anywhere in the county. My own Iphone, seems to have a similar issue, with some numbers. I enter the number, press the green button to get it to dial, then...

    Local authorities, and carpets

    In the news at the moment, is the ridiculous situation, of when someone moves out of council property, the property has to be totally cleared of everything - furniture, floor coverings, and carpet, irrespective of the condition of the items. The person then moving in, is faced with massive...
