  1. Na i always have a "real" fire ,the chimney was built so even a chimmney brush couldnt go round it ,we swept it with a 2lb weight on a rope with a big bundle of holly tied in the middle ,i pulled up my mrs pulled down ,result a clean chimney and a sooty wife ,maybe he stopped for a sarnie the "new" house has a gas fire ,very old and very ugly "usual council back boiler type" we have just changed suppliers ,this morning had the final bill from the old firm ,had a shock on reading it £456 on looking at the meter realised it had been read wrongly (by a strange pointing machine) and it had added a 4 instead of a 3 in the thousand range how many other wrong readings are going on :mad: [ 25.

  4. there was a sighting about 100yds away from our old house , one night we heard a very large animal running across our roof (we lived in a large bungalow with several roofs and flat roofs) from one end to the one we were sitting in whatever it was jumped off and we distinctly heard it hit the ground ,there was nothing in the garden (the end it landed in) and whatever it was jumped a six foot wire fence ,on investigation there were several broken tiles and deep scratches on others
  5. I haven't been fishing for months. A little man appeared in our lives and I've been spending time with him and his mother. A future fishing buddy I hope! not napoleon (again) i thought i was charlie drake once
  6. i can never hear the words ,the beat is enough hence in my old age trance is cool
  7. PAY choke splutter ,i`l muddle through somehow ,hey who uses them anyway ,ive got a digi cam its near enough
  8. this mentions both ,maybe a phonecall will reveal their owners http://www.freelandenterprises.co.uk/ClockHouse.asp
  9. its cheaper than writing on the boxes light the green/black/white/yellow/red etc having them blue is cheaper in printing costs
  10. have just been given an old jvc gr-45e camcorder "to play with", has anyone the operating manual they can scan for me [ 24. October 2002, 08:55 PM: Message edited by: chesters1 ]
  11. i can record a movie in wmm using a usb connected camera but it defaults to audio only and i have to enable audio + vid on the record screen ,if it see`s your cam on the record page then it should work ,if not your probably using firewire or another connection and the answer lies with the card ,sorry i cant help further because mine works
  12. william wallace is a strange choice :confused: did he do anything unfortunatly our hero`s of the second war are written out of history as it may offend our "friends" the germans (dont mention the war) it would have been easier to sub divide it into greatest scot,english ,welsh and ni person after all in royalist eyes cromwell was a traitor and in ireland a mass murderer its a sign of the times that a minor celebrity singer /promotist comes above someone like jethro tull which changed peoples lives (no not THAT jethro)
  13. if they are catching carp the best way to find out how is to talk to them leave your stuff at home and take a stroll round and have a chat ,if they bring in a bait have a peek at how its presented etc, as for the larger fish ,maybe your fishing to shallow or the bait is being intercepted before the bigguns can get it ,try putting the shot nearer the bait so it falls through the water quicker and plumb the swim and fish on the bottom ,use a bigger bait helps and chucking a handfull of freebies to one side of where your bait will be just before you cast should draw the greedy ones away so your bait gets to the bottom
  14. here where you should be http://www.fica.com/site/html/services/tro...bleshooting.asp
  15. cant find them on the web (is it a laptop),if not compare the psu to your modern machine ,for years the psu`s have been off the shelf units and seem to be the same shape ,if its a really old machine modern psu`s can be put inside the old psu boxes ,if its an unusuall shaped psu you could (with help ) turn a modern psu into an external one by lenghthening the leads , if it uses unusuall voltages then indeed a door step it is
  16. could be dangerouse though ,come off the road at 100mph ,26 rolls into a ditch ,and all your plugs and spinners could get tangled
  17. oh sorry ,found it very pretty ,lucky chap the box has a different layout to the pic i have ,added a further 8 models to my list ,these were the last intrepids ,probably all japanese, all introduced in 1980 firm bought out in 80/81 (thanks to j pardoe for his research from 1967 onwards)(he was the boss of east anglian rod co and a major wholesaler of intrepids) that brings the list of intrepids to 40 (some were rebadged clones)and i thought intrepid was a easy make to collect [ 23.
