Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Help needed with a death at sea please.
« on: Sunday 08 March 15 19:23 GMT (UK)  »
Hi All,

Find my past are doing a free weekend until midday on Monday 9th. 

I have found Peter Callison, I have been trying to find out what had happened to him for 10 years. 

Find my past shows he died at sea on 13th July 1853, the vessels name was the Harold sailing out of Shields.  Could anyone please try to read the Masters name (it looks like Detchern), also what's written under place and cause of death plus what's written under the fee of 2 shillings and 4d.

His wife Jane Callison nee Townsend remarried in 1857, I have never been able to find a death certificate for Peter is that because this record is a type of death certificate?

Thanks for your help

Hi all can anyone help please suddenly over the last week I cannot open any attachments in my BT Yahoo mail account where a week ago I could open the same attachments the message waiting for prod1.rest.msg.yahoo.com is displayed then disappears.    I sent 1 of the emails with an attachment to my hotmail account which opened ok.  I suspect it is the BT account have tried BT help and searching the internet, but no nearer an answer.

Have windows7, tried Google Chrome and Internet Explorer access to log on to emails on BT account, but no difference.

Thanks & regards

Technical Help / Oki 3300 Printer Toner Leaking out of Image Drum
« on: Monday 08 March 10 14:49 GMT (UK)  »
Hi All,

Does anyone have any experience with colour toner printers please

The Magenta toner is leaking out of the bottom of the image drum blobbing on the transfer belt and coming out on the prints, if you clean the Magenta toner out of the printer it will print fine for loads of prints until that colour is used again in a print.
My question is will a new image drum cure it? don't want to by a new drum and find its not that.

Thanks and regards

Technical Help / Electronics expert needed please
« on: Wednesday 23 December 09 11:48 GMT (UK)  »

My computer has had a new power supply fitted in the tower recently, computer is working fine, but as soon as it's turned on the sky plus box can't be used with the remote control, something is going back down the mains power and interfering with it.
I have proved this by moving the computer as far away from sky box as possible on the same ring main,
still interferes, but when it is moved to the other ring main in the house that supplies the kitchen it's ok.
Could this be a faulty power supply in the tower, if not can something be done to stop interference?

Thanks and Regards
