About 5 - 6 years ago I had a patio laid with greyish/beige blocks similar to bricks. Much of it has become discoloured and heavily speckled with white blotches and it looks a mess. I'm told it is...
Dear Ed, How is AB Suggestions really meant to be used? Should it be to submit suggestions to you for new topics, sections, pink postings, etc. I recently posted an item about factory farming without...
Has anyone had the experience of changing their broadband provider please? I've been with Wanadoo (Orange) for about 18 months, so the initial 12 months contract period is well past. I'm hoping it's a...
I have a website with sub-sections and have been asked if I could create an RSS feed (Really Simple Syndication!) to make it easy to directly access a particular subject. There are many software...
I run a local community based activity with about 75 members - all of whom have agreed to be on my email list. I am with Wanadoo (Orange) broadband and have been using a group mailing system about...
Dear Ed, I enjoy looking at the topical pink questions and answers, but it's vexing not knowing where they are without having to search around to find them. Would it be possible please to put some...

Does anyone out there use MS Publisher to create websites? I would like to include on a website a form which can be printed without having to print the whole web page. Perhaps it's not possible with...
I have two rather old, but sound and comfortable, green plastic garden chairs. Time, weather and sun have taken their toll and they are looking tatty. It seems a pity to dump them and I'm wondering if...
System Restore not working seems to be a problem for many people. Mine hasn't worked for ages (months) and there are many references on the Internet. I have Windows XP professional and the original CD...
