    Thanks for all the stats :dance: Really good places still for Echoes and Jealousy, Jealousy has kept it's self buoyant aswell as Echoes, and what great timing for Come On to be released, just as jealousy is leaving top 20. Fab sales, and fantastic that Echoes is at 32 on YTD sales.... :dance: #happybunny :D
  3. It's just one of those irritants that just can't help themselves, and if he has seen the evidence, then he's making a prat of himself. I think most people know different. Annoying as it is. Seems Will has become a bench mark. :D and I think thats why he is being used (mentioned .. good or bad)
  4. OOH yes sorry Ros, thats just brilliant news :dance: looking forward to hearing those :dance: Yes me too Gill :dance:
  5. Godsake Ros :o What a load of imbicilles :rolleyes: I find nowerdays we have to do everything twice, nothing is ever simple :rolleyes: Why have clueless numpties working in a call centre? I don't think I know anyone who has used PC World ever have a good experience with them. Yes why didn't they put the code in, surely that's part of fixing a laptop? Half measures again. Pleased you're sorted now Ros, it was purely a guess at the sticky on the under side of your laptop, didn't know for sure.
  6. :lol: :lol: Stop it Chrissy, my mind has gone in the gutter :rofl: so funny ... A la Jessica Simpson :lol: Blimey! I've been away 3 days and I've come back to lots to read :dance: Thanks everyone for all the news and to Bev for keeping me up to date with everything :D Erm, Er, Yes, Crufts :o I am dumbstruck, I did think Will was going to be, er, sensible! My heart sank when Bev told me it was going to be Crufts, all I could think about was, oh no not another Grace video. and seriously wanted to bang my head on something hard. I'm another that didn't like the Grace vid, seemed pointless to me, only to maybe show prospective new series producers that he can actually ride a horse. but like Ros I have thought long and hard at what on earth is he going to show in the video, judges? rosettes? apart from the normal routine with the dogs? I think I am going to be watching the new vid through a gap in my fingers or peeping out from behind a cushion. I did have to laugh at the extras either not getting paid or only getting fifty quid ... tight ass :lol: Wonder how much Coldplay are paying? How odd that person putting up Crufts as their answer after reading the official statement. How silly :lol: Thanks Gill for the artwork :wub: loving that :D ... Bev, trust you with the car bonnet pic, have you no shame :P :lol: Very good news re the French station and the KM network :D Sunday it's fab your vid is getting pinched and used in lots of places, you will have to start charging royalties :lol: Thanks for putting up all the snippets :D
  7. Thanks Ros :D Who would have thought 4 door stops would have mended a laptop :lol: seems to be running ok today too, apart from the security messages. How odd Ros, :( probably something that PC World forgot to either give you or put into your laptop. Is the coding on the sticker on the underside of your laptop any good? They did a fresh install didn't they? How annoying. :( Any news on that front yet Ros?
  8. :lol: So do I, they are a bit rickety to say the least :lol: ... Oh you meant the laptop 'legs' Ah yes they are ok at the mo :lol: Only thing thats happening at the mo is BJ pages not totally loading and I keep getting the security message about, do you want to view just the secure part, hopefully that will just sort it's self out. :D Just going to sort some dinner out and I'll be back a bit later. :D
  9. Hello everyone :D Laptop is behaving :blink: but only since I stuck 4 rubber door stops on the bottom of my laptop :rofl: seems you were right Chris :lol: I've spent 3 days tearing my hair out, scanning and uninstalling and deleting stuff :rolleyes: and all it seems to be is the poxy fan :lol: That's what I thought Ros, but it seems as though all that was needed was a few 'legs' :lol: It looks hilarious. Ah well at least it's working :wacko: :lol: Looks like I've got a tad of catching up to do :dance: glad to be back :D
  10. I'm here on a wing and a prayer again, laptop is still freezing, Barry asked me to back up and remove anything that I want to keep and he will take my laptop into work for one of the whizz kids to have a look at, think it's going to be wiped and hopefully they will install XP for me, I think a lot of the problems are to do with Vista and the Windows updates, it's a shame that they have to make rubbish operating systems that do not improve, rather they are inferior to their predecessor :wacko: Not sure how long I will be able to stay on here till it all freezes up again. I got rid of some programs that i dont really use yesterday, then tried to defrag, but even that froze :rolleyes: Just going for a very quick read and then try and get some pics and music and my favourites all backed up and saved. Will just say thanks for all the news incase I suddenly disapear again :lol:
  11. Thanks for all the Live Lounge info, fantastic that he wins hands down everytime :D
  12. Thanks for sorting out the threads Gill :D great idea :D Thanks for the review Bev I enjoyed reading that. Our first single review :D Think I'm in the same boat Chrysalis... I need a mouse stuck to my brain to click and save, still the recall is pants :wacko: Brilliant that the shooting of the video is tomorrow, shall look forward to that, laptop permitting :rolleyes:
  13. Thanks Sunday and Gill :D After all that on the phone ive just restarted laptop again and it seems to be sorted, fan is making a noise again now, only have BJ open, so we shall see, drove me nuts on my phone took me about half an hour to make one post :wacko: :lol: hope now the net is back properly, I hope the freezing stops now too, but im not holding my breath. Just going to have a quick read to catch up quickly incase I dissapear again :lol: We do all seem to be having problems lately :( xx
  14. hi everyone., ive got no internet., im posting from my phone. Its a known problem so hopefully its fixed soon. Laptop is still freezing too. Im wondering if the two things are connected. Its taken me an age to get on here to post. No 3g here so wont stay on cos its doing my nut lol see you later .:) x
  15. :lol: Not again, :lol: The last lot were abysmal :lol: Thanks Ros :D
  16. Thanks Chris :) Ah yes that's probably what its doing, last night when I was reading the Guardian interview that Bev put up, I read the top bit, then I tried to scroll down and it was frozen, then it came back to life and shot down to the bottom of the article, then froze completely. :rolleyes: ... another reboot. and froze again, so I gave up. yeah everything in the systems tray by the clock is running in the background. I do have a few things in there :rolleyes: I did have a few things open initially but after it kept freezing I just had BJ open and it was still freezing. :lol: at bigger capasity hard drive with humungus fan. :lol: it's damned annoying isnt it Chris :lol: have you considered an external HDD, the only thing with them is that you can't access any software that you load on from a second computer, but if you want it for solely for your own laptop/pc they are great :D What a pain in the ass that you have to shut down everytime, that would get on me wick.
  17. :lol: Ripped Jeans and green plimmies with a hole in :D Thanks Bev, will pop back and post properly in a bit, just going in the garden. see you ladies later :D
  18. It drove me nuts last night, think i switched it off and rebooted about 10 times, finally went to bed about 2am with a headache :wacko: :lol:
  19. Thanks Chris and Gill, Ive done a full systems scan, I did have some unwanted cookies but nothing serious. Think you are possibly right Chris, my fan has been making a bit of noise lately, especially when its doing a few tasks at once. When you say 'throttle down' would the laptop just freeze if it does that please? Mine isnt closing down completely but just can't do anything with it exept hold the 'on' button in till it eventually switches off, then when i reboot it comes up with the 'start Windows normally' option, I'm not sure how long i will be able to stay on, im not going to shut down till later, have some stuff to do in the garden this afternoon, hopefully i can get on later today. Fingers crossed. Thanks :D
  20. Arrrrrrrgh, My laptop keeps freezing, I've had to switch it off six times and reboot. :angry: If I'm not around for a few days you will know why. hope it's just a glitch, but the way it's been behaving lately I somehow doubt it. :unsure: It's destined for a dunk in the fish pond :lol:

    Thanks Gill, Chris and Julie, :D Sounds like it might be a great interview :D :lol: Sunday at Will being interviewed while tipsy :) He would let so much out the bag :lol:

    Oh :( I think Chrissy's son sorted hers out, is your problem the same Bev? what a pain in the erm proverbial :( Did you delete your cookies? How odd :(
  23. Oh that's great Bev, when i viewed it, it didnt register that I had watched it and I think it was Gill that said the same thing, glad the figures have been put up now, thought it was all broken :D

    Me too Bev. Gill do you think Carol would mind if I used the blue banner for one for me? I would of course name check her and thank her in my sig. Is that being a bit too cheeky? Please say if so, I won't take offence :D
