    Can anyone recommend any property webistes for the Scunthorpe type area? After 10 years away from the UK it's time for me to move back into the country, looking at the Scunthorpe area, well within 20-30 miles of there anyway, preferably a smallish village/town type of place. Thanks in...

    Prince Harry

    right about the reason it was made a target, but what about the other aircraft that had to go up everytime he left the ship in his chopper? ok so protecting the squadron assigned to the ship would have been part of the daily routine but there would have been a lot more pressure when they were...

    Faster internet connection.........options??

    I'll have to try and track down a local engineer then and have a word with him.........I know there is a house around here somewhere that always has eircom vans parked outside it. Adam, to be honest with you I don't really know enough about all this stuff to even consider you were taking a...

    Faster internet connection.........options??

    31k is actually fast would you believe!! Back around Easter time I was lucky to get above 10k. Another one of the joys of living in the country, the modem is ok - well as far as I can tell anyway, it's the phone lines that are a pile of pants. I keep thinking there is an old woman called Dorothy...

    Faster internet connection.........options??

    Thanks Freddie, You're right it isn't really a service oriented country!! Specially once you get out in the country. We get our post once a day, never before 3pm, think the latest so far is 10pm!! Bin collection day is Thursday, so every Wednesday evening the bin gets wheeled up the drive and...

    Transferring VHS to DVD

    Could try taking a look here: http://www.doom9.org/ The forum is pretty good for getting tips on pretty much anything to do with burning dvd's plus they have most of the software you'll need if you choose to do it through a pc. Breezer and ninebob are right though, if you use a pc...

    Faster internet connection.........options??

    Not sure if this is the right section of this forum or not, maybe it could go in the computers section. If so then I apologise. I want to speed up my internet access at home, currently I am working on dialup which typically gives me a connection speed of around 31k - which I'm sure you can...

    Shower Floor Tiling

    I'm sure this has probably been covered already and if it has I apologise for repeating. I'm looking to remove a shower tray from our ensuite and replace it with a tiled shower floor. Not really a wetroom, kind of a half a wet room if there is such a thing. I will be putting in a "curb" at...
