I parked on a double yellow to escort an elderly infirm relative into a local restaurant. When U returned less than two minutes later, a Traffic Officer had issued a fixed penalty notice. When I...
Saw a re-run of this interview with Victoria Beckfam with Parkinson. At 29, apart from being stunningly attractive, she has already got a firm grip on the nonsense of being a 'celebrity. And she...
I have had some film clips sent to me as MP4's via Winzip. I am unsure of the previous file sending software, but when I clicked on the 'Insert Video' on the PP toolbar, it would allow me to insert...

We are constantly told not to use Mobile Data abroad. I am in Montreal, and have used MD a couple of times for Net access when none was available, no more than two minutes at a time. Are charges based...
Really enjoying my box set of Coupling. I'd better not go into the appeal of the female members of the cast - it gives offence to some, which I would not wish to do. Anyone else watched it and enjoyed...
I got my expanding hose out for summer watering, and the connection where the head screws onto the hose is shooting water everywhere. I have unscrewed and rescrewed several times, no joy. It was water...
