Hi Guys just got back from a freebie call out 11pm GMT the lady in question, had signed up to NTL UK cable a few weeks back after being on 56K dial up , it was the usual cock up by the installer , and he did not have the sign up details, on day 2 I got called in , got the details , loaded an antivirus & firewall , did a speed test or 2 , reset the rwin , lite the fuse and escaped , a day back I got a call , I cant connect to the internet or mail , and she had phoned NTL , but the guy was a idiot , and no help , I think he got some abuse , So this evening I went over , she was still complainuing of not being able to connect , so I turn on the puter having noticed the modem lights were ok , first thing I see is NO SIGNAL on the flat screen moniter , the puter loads up with the correct bleep , with a black screen checked the vid lead it was OK yeah, the vid card had failed , the puter had onboard graphics as well as the Nvidia card (Asrock m/b ) so I got it up running after a bios change, she said you ar clever , why couldnt the NTL Guy have told me that , I told him I could not connect to NTL , :2funny:

Hi Guys First things first , Thanks for voting , note, I was only quoting the opinion of a UK newspaper, ( my view is the U.S,$ will sink , but the USA is big and strong enough to recover later in the year , ) I have been doing a wintertime ( bored ) survey amongst work colleges and neighbours on how the U.SA. was viewed in Grt. Britain , in these troubled times, My questions were , #1 how do you feel about America and it

Is the dollar doomed? Larry Elliott December 19, 2006 3:06 PM http://commentisfree.guardian.co.uk/larry_elliott/2006/12/dollar_crisis.html There are plenty of big economic questions that will be answered in 2007. Will there be a global trade deal? Can the German economy shrug off the impact of higher taxes? Can China continue to grow at 10% a year? Will oil prices stay high or come crashing down? But they are all sideshows to the main event. The really crucial question for 2007 is whether it is the year when there is a run on the dollar. There are plenty of people out there - me included - who think the US currency is going to take a beating over the next 12 months.

Thanks on that Paladin , I finally got it straight on that, suspenders USA, for holding up trousers Braces UK for holding up trousers , suspenders in the UK ( full name -suspender belt ) for holding up female hosiery as in pic in Tommies post 39, , LOL Garters , That is a word that has just about disappeared in the UK , indeed for holding up socks, remember them well as a kid , also the embarrassment of having my gloves sown to elastic threaded through my coat , I have gone a little bit off topic here
