Money wont fix the upset it caused the family but it's good it was raised. Probably vandalised by kids from the subculture we now have.

Just download it and install it. If you don't recall installing it then it needs updating anyway.

They call it fibre but it isn't. Maybe they are changing their phone to use the coax. It used to be wired with the coax and a separate phone cable coming in together but visibly two cables joined.

The Muslims voted Labour last time apart from a couple of places where they got organised. The greens got virtually no votes that mattered last time either. Their votes this time are mostly Muslims plus the even more lefties than usual Labour voters.

They have zero chance of forming a government by 2029 unless Starmer gives all the dinghy boys a vote and they step up the crossings. There are not enough places with a Muslim majority. There are loonies everywhere true but most are not loony enough to vote green. They'll probably vote LibDem as so many loonies do.

Quote from: Scrumpy on Yesterday at 08:12:36 PM35 mins !!! I bet that phone call costs more than the order..
I buy my ( health) stuff on Amazon Prime..
I make sure that it is a ( recognised)  product and can be purchased at stores.. Certainly cheaper than buying from a pharmacy..
It was dreadful cutomer service, Scumps.
I had to spell out my email address three times,  my phone number two or three times,  then she put me on hold for nearly 5 minutes,  then came back and asked me my address again,  then she even made an error over the prices, and told me I had got discount when I hadn't    . . .  it really was bad.

I do buy some things from Amazon,  but not sure if I could get these two herbal items elsewhere.   I  suppose I could have a look and find out though.  Ta muchly.

They both got carted off to jail
And Betty let out a loud wail
She blamed Eric for it all
And gave him a knee in the b***s
He screamed and went very pale!

Quote from: Alex on Yesterday at 05:36:14 PMIt's not uncommon for graves to be vandalised, the Jewish community is well used to it.  I can't help but feel really sad today after reading James Bulger's grave has been vandalised.  Sick people out there.
I saw that too,  Alex.    There's some sick people there are in this world.
His poor Mother has said  -  "she will get them"    for this.

Last I saw about £16,000  had been raised to help her get the grave put back together.

I have had to ask my computer man to come back and try and put this right.   I can't go on like this, its driving me nuts.   I will have a look at Malwarebytes too.  Not sure if I've already got it or not?  Where do I look to check?

Virgin came to me over a year ago to change to what I understood to be fibre.   He fiddled about altering my wiring inside and out, and put a new little interior box on the wall next to my computer.   

He got on my wick because he kept trying to insist I let him move my landline - ( which is with Virgin),   into the computer room and have it next to the desktop,  but I refused as I wanted it left in the kitchen where it's always been.  I hear it better in there.
  He didn't like it,  because it meant he had to put  a bit of extra wiring in to  let me keep it in the kitchen,  but he grudgingly did it in the end.
