Sorry for not replying sooner Chris. firefox supresses the PM pop-ups so unless i spot the thing at the top of the screen i dont realise i have one. besides i had to get half an hours work in before Fred Dibnah. i believe somebody famous might appear on it
 (or have i missed that one?)

I was on last week when he was outside the mill (Andy Thornton's) opposite my work and i met hima dn got an autograph and everything!! And if you hunt through my blog, you will probably find a photo of Mr Dibnah on Bessie what i took that day after I met him!!!! And I was on the week before when he drove across Scammonden Bridge over the motorway and i was watching form the Brown Cow pub at the end of the bridge. (And totally randomly before my boss became a newsagent he worked on the motorways and helped build that bridge!!!) |

Ok...just to prove what a total idiot I am when it comes to computers...
...last night we had a powercut and computer wouldn't let me back online... ...today it still wouldn't let me on so I rang the helpline... ..."what's your router number?" they asked... ..."what's a router?" I replied... ...once we got that one sorted I had to find it and turn it on and off...except that this computer is my dad's...and all the wires are jumbled up behind the sofa...so finding the right one was a pain... ...thought I'd got it so dutifully switched it on and off... ...nothing ..."ok, I'll run a line check" ...it was at that moment that I realised I'd switched the wrong plug on and off  ...once I managed to get the guy back on the phone I tried to explain but apparently calling every electrical appliance in existance "thing" doesn't work when you're trying to describe what you mean...neither does wild hand gestures... ...got off the phone, switched the right plug on and off and it worked  I think the poor guy I talked to is on the verge of a nervous breakdown...but at least I'm back online! My thoughts: I really am useless when it comes to computers
