  1. Nope, there is ONE, it is in the Pub where I usually am, not 'cause I drink but it's also where the telephone for the Island is
  2. This is what really gets to me about you people.......... You still find it hard to get over that we small band of brothers here on the Island have protected you lot from Invasion for hundreds of years. Point of Fact, twice the United Kingdom was Invaded from France the first time they landed near Hastings and conquered. The second time they landed on the South Coast of the Isle of Wight. We (The Island Residents at the time) killed them all to the last man and put their heads on wooden poles. (We must have been in a good mood cause I would still eat them!) As for the Germans, who was manning the radar station that gave you lot warning of being bombed? And before you say anything they bombed my Granny when she was working in 'The Vine' Public House at Newport. Not sure if they were actually after my gran at the time, but my gran got upset taking a bomb that was meant to land on one of you lot. DO NOT even start me on about the Vikings or Romans
  3. You probably have an older version Dave. A lot of the valves were later replaced by PCB's
  4. OH Well.......... Just seen Watchdog on the telly.... Lannies have a FEW problems, mainly because they are now driven by cissies and townies who don't know how to drive them in the 'rough' They think 'rough' means having to park on a field at garden parties. At least they don't burst into flames like the £30,000 VOLVO XC series (allegedly, not necessarily the view of me, my family, Anglers Net, my employers, the bloke down the road, my mate etc etc etc) I still stck by my guns as I have to say that I have never experianced a problem with a landrover which others report (apart from my '93 discovery which I had from new and needed two gearboxes in it's 40,000 mile 9 year life before I traded it for a Shogun) PS. Chesters doesn't need a JEEP, we all know he has a small winkle
  5. Very funny......... The LINK to the titles one is a bit shorter but makes you wonder, like wonder how long it stayed up
  6. Gload to see the weather is improving in the North then
  7. Yes mate it is............. "The essential qualification for a road transport manager is the Certificate of Professional Competence (CPC), which equates approximately to NVQ level 3. Every site operating a road transport business is required to have at least one person (usually a manager) with this qualification. There are four types of certificate: National or International Road Haulage Operations and National or International Passenger Transport Operations. The training for these qualifications is offered at many centres throughout the UK. These can be found by using the Trainer Finder search facility on the Careers in Logistics website (see Further Information). Applicants for road transport manager positions will be expected to have the relevant certificate, although trainee managers may work towards it on the job." Oh no talking to myself again.................
  8. Ummmmmmmmm I think that is slightly illegal
  9. RIGHT THAT'S IT. I have tried to be reasonable and hold a reasoned discussion based on experiance and common sense but this has obviously failed! I will now prove my case by reference to old African Folk Law as still told by many wise men in that Continent. One day a Rhino is walking along a trail when he hears a quiet voice say "Help me, help me please" after investigation he sees a hole with a mouse at the bottom. "What's wrong?" says the Rhino. "I am stuck down this hole and cannot get out" replies the mouse. At which point the Rhino places his frame over the hole and lowers his penis down telling the mouse to get hold of it, The Mouse takes hold of the penis and as the rhino stands the mouse is hoisted to safety. "I cannot thank you enough" exclaims the mouse, "you have saved my life and you will be rewarded for I am King of all mice on the planet, your reward may not be today but I can assure you it will come to you and you will be repaid for your kindness...." The Rhino goes about his business. Many Moons later the Mouse is walking along a trail and he hears "Help me, help me I am stuck!" he goes over to a hole and peering over the edge he sees the Rhino stuck at the bottom. "Do not fear my friend says the Mouse, for you have saved me and I told you that someday your reward will come" With this the Mouse squats over the hole and lowers his penis towards the Rhino. Obviously this has no effect and the Rhino says "Thank you for your help but I fear you cannot help me" "Wait a while" says the King of the Mice, "your debt will be repaid." The King of the Mice goes away and a short while later returns with a JEEP and a rope. Lowering the rope into the hole the King of all mice tells the Rhino to hold on, gets into the Jeep and pulls the Rhino from the hole saving his life. The moral of the story is............................ People who drive JEEP's have small willies
  10. No bother at all matey, better to see something and try to help rather than just keep schtum. You could well have been right. And although on this occasion you were wrong so indeed am I, didn't read the error message correctly. The error message is reporting an unknown mailbox on the server. It is likely that he has a automatically assigned ISP address and for some reason that IP address has been temporarily blocked, could be because of misuse by the last person it was randomly assigned to. I would suggest checking your settings, log off to your ISP and log back in again. If your dialler is correct and your settings are right then it probably is a server issue and will clear itself.
  11. Kembo........... I thought that it had suddenly stopped
  12. The error 0x800CCC6F is normally associated with an incorrect log in on another ISP. Check that your ISP dialler hasn't been hijacked by spyware straight away. Check this Help File
  13. Well this help is definately needed, not by me I might add but by more than one by the look of it, could even make yourself a few shillings to boot. This picture is the Public Slipway in East Cowes (IOW) alongside the Red Funnel Car Ferry to Southampton. It is quite a good spot for Bass especially when the ferry is there churning up all the crud, the little blighters go mad at lures. The second view is a little closer on the Electrical Cable that runs from the Gantry to the Trinity House building on the other side of the slip. See what I mean
  14. Andrew, Are you dialling in to the internet on the same account your email is located. ie. have you another dial up or broadband connection you use but still retain your email from another ISP service? If NO then the answer is above. If you are using another ISP then it is a settings issue which I can talk you through easily
  15. They (the CAB) are as usual quite correct Colin, You have a right to a written contract detailing all you duties, responsibilities etc, etc etc within 16 weeks of starting employment. IF you do not recieve this the YOU are entitled to ASSUME the conditions of your contract and this is the contract to which both parties are bound. This assumption must be bassed on reasonable grounds given the work and conditions which you have to this time both abided by. It is fair therefore for you to believe that working late was optional. It would not be fair for instance for you to claim that you were entitled to leave the kids and the coach at a services and catch a taxi home. There are some 'reasonable' no win no fee Law firms out there but be careful of listening to/reading an advertisment and phoning 0800 stuff my employer for me 'R' us etc! Get an appointment with a Local Solicitor from a respected firm, The first meeting should be free or cost a 'nominal amount' Check this when you make the appointment. Ask him/her about Legal Aid. It is also worth noting that the employer is responsible for the costs of an Industrial Tribunal even if he is succesful. Most employers DO NOT want to go down this line unless they have insurance, even then the Insurance Company will not pay unless they were consulted PRIOR to the dismissal, It sounds likie they were not. If you know the boss, I would try and speak to him face to face, take somebody with you and see if you can sort it out but appreciate that this is very difficult. If you have the time a lot of your fears can be answered here.UK GOVT DIRECT
  16. Is that a marine version of "The Pope Mobile"
  17. I am really on the edge of my seat here, any news. Where did you go fishing Elton, what did you catch
  18. You were warned................ By Clicking HERE you cetify you are over 18 years of age
  19. Huge says after climbing on to his soap box.................. You raise an interesting issue which is in no small way linked to BSE. When I was a snippet of a lad, we were quite poor. I say quite poor because it is a matter of perspective. My Brother and I, along with a lot of people in our area went, well, basically poaching on the downs and in nearby fields for rabbits as a food source for the family. Farmers were quite happy with this arrangement, we did no damage and the rabbit population was kept down. Along came various rules and regulations amongst which 'poaching' was banned and effectively stopped apart from poaching for 'worthwhile' fodder such as Salmon and Venison. Amongst this was the release of Mixxie. Farmers no longer had to 'rely' on people wandering their land at night as the rabbit population was going to be 'controlled' by mixxie. How wrong we were. Huge gets off his soapbox and will now discuss topics such as Sid, Cedric and his lost marbels
  20. I am not going to answer that
  21. I don't have one matey, I have had various vehicles, the main reason why I change them is 'cause I get bored and try something else. Each has a good point as each has a bad, A vehicle which is better at towing over long distance is not going to have the same charactaristics as a vehicle with low ratio, mid range torque, low attack etc etc etc. Elton asked for a vehicle to use as a 'second' vehicle to use occasionally over short distances for fishing trips etc. To my view the fact that you don't have to throw out £190 per year (or whatever) for VED and you get fully comp insurance (with 0 years no claims bonus) for about £70 a year makes an older Landrover worth considering. As I pointed out before. IF you want to tow a boat for miles listening to your CD with the air con on then go JAP, can't make it any simpler. If money is not an issue then Balls to the JAP and YANKS.
