active fire stations.

[funkymoped]

does anyone know of an "active fire station" ever having been burned down ???

me and my lad were browsing microsofts Virtual Earth and noticed there is a fire station next to Lincoln city FC.

he asked what would happen if a fire station caught fire if the crews were on a call...

naz-nomad, I have asked this question before, elsewhere, but I still don't understand. How do you get a link, as you did, into your answer box? Any chance that you could explain it step by step?

Once you've found the page on Google, or whatever ... highlight te whole line in the address bar ***http://WHATEVER.com***

It will become blue with white writing ... then hold down the left Ctrl key and while you're holding it down, press c.

this copies the highlighted text.

Then go to where you want the text to appear ... Answerbank, a Word Document ... anywhere where you enter text really.

Then hold down the left Ctrl key again, while holding it down press v.

This pastes the text into the text box ...



This is the quickest method. Another way is to use Edit / Cut, and Edit / Paste at the top-left of your screen.

Yet another way is to right-click the mouse and select copy, then go to where you want the text and right-click and select paste ...

give it a try ,,get back to me.


For links to work, you have to include the http:// part of the link
