The Stay Safe Board / Re: Diary summary week ending 28th November
« on: Friday 26 November 21 13:59 GMT (UK)  »
I was watching my local news programme one evening and a reporter was asking people if they thought wearing a mask should be made compulsory again.Most said yes.He then was speaking to a woman who told him she hadn't had any vaccines,she didn't believe in them and she wasn't infectious.
It made me think of this that I saw the other day.
Scientists believed that Covid was spread by noses and mouths.They now know it's spread by A***H****.

I remember several years ago reading through some baptism registers.For one entry the vicar had written "Another of Mary X's little bastards "

Technical Help / Re: Computer numpty needs help

Thank you for all the replies and apologies for not getting back sooner.

The machine was new in June and my daughter ordered it on line and had it delivered to me so taking it back is not an option even if I could travel. Neither is ditching it and buying a new one or an ipad I just don't have the money ! but thanks anyway.

Technical Help / Computer numpty needs help
« on: Saturday 12 September 20 13:57 BST (UK)  »
 
I have been using an hp chromebook since June which was to replace my very old laptop and was recommended by my daughter as very easy to set up and use as she knows I "don't do technology"
I only use it for fun,a few websites and the odd email is as much as I can manage. I am a complete dunce at anything technical (the last time I used my dvd the steel magnolias were speaking Italian !! )

For the past 3 or 4 days the machine has bee running very slowly.I have tried to find an answer but keep getting technical jargon I do not understand.Please could someone help me in words of one syllable as to what the problem might be and how to fix it. I really am an absolute numpty with any thing complicated.
Many thanks.

Yep,I quite agree.It seems to be a load of rubbish or repeats of repeats.

Watching a pair of collared doves building a nest in my wild cherry tree that I can see from my kitchen window. Lovely.

Technical Help / Re: Printer ink cartridges
« on: Thursday 12 March 20 17:41 GMT (UK)  »

Thank you for all the replies. I think it was a Canon printer I had problems with before. I don't do a lot of printing and certainly not photographs,so I might give the compatible ones a try.

Many thanks.

Technical Help / Printer ink cartridges
« on: Thursday 12 March 20 14:00 GMT (UK)  »

I have an HP printer and have always used their cartridges but they seem to have tripled in price in the last two years so I am considering buying compatible ones. I am rather wary as I have had trouble with them in the past in a previous printer,not an HP.
Does anyone use this type ? and if so where is the best place to buy them?
Many thanks for any help and advice.
