  1. My PC keeps randomly rebooting itself. No blue screen of death or messages, it just shuts itself down and reboots. My anti-virus and firewall definitions are up to date so I don't suspect a virus or hack. I'm using Windows XP Home Edition with SP2 and it's up to date as well. Any suggestions?

  2. Reidy can I ask something here :unsure: Not from wanting the sim etc

    Just out of curiosity.... See the sim your giving away .... Is it a total different number :unsure: (I believe yes)

    If so I take it you have just decided to keep your old sim :unsure: (which will be older formatted, regardless of how old it is)

    So a couple of things I would suggest to you would be to:

    Simply port your current vodafone number from your older formatted sim onto your newer formatted sim..... In doing this most networks (Im sure Vodafone do aswell) will allow you to do this rather easily & free because they class it as a Pay As You Go UPGRADE.... And again by doing this (if you were currently on PAYG, staying PAYG) the network reward you with something up to £50+ cashback credit..... And if you want the cash you just let them credit you then simply phone up and get a cheque sent out for credit on you Handset :wink:

    If however you have been on a contract and just purchased a new (PAYG) handset to fit your Vodafone Contract sim, then fine give the PAYG sim away.........

    If you do port from sim to bear in that the one you have left over will only have a sim number and not a telephone number......

    P.S.- Bongo told me to ask if anyone wants some free tickets :unsure:

    P.P.S - See the format thing... Its really all about making sure you have the most upto date access and best network coverage etc etc a wee bit like getting software upgrades on the actual handsets themself

    Everybody's a fúckin expert these days...

    Isn't the New Inn now The Abbey Bar? :unsure: And I didn't know the Music Academy was a pub...

  4. The Bob Inn/Stringfellows (Demolished- Now petrol station on Gr**n%ck Road)

    There was also a pub next to the bridge at the corner of Harbour Lane in the late eighties.Can't remember its name, but it became a club called Threads then subsequently a Mexican restaurant.It was/is a nursery callede CoCo's?

    That place was originally built as the new Hibs Hall. Didn't last very long and just about everything that's been there since has been similarly doomed...

  5. Jings - aren't some people's faithers awfy young...? :o

    The Bislands ran great pubs - efficient and pleasant and clean. They made their dosh running a brilliant Station Bar (now Stowe) before taking on the Tudor. It started out as a wee place: bar on left and lounge on right, then they opened the big lounge through the back - and it just kept growing Tardis-like into the Carnegie's it is now! (Is it still Carnegie's?) :unsure:

    Aaaaahhhh.... the close season really is upon us, now! :)

    Carnegie's is shut. As is the one on the corner that used to be Ronnie's. Were these in Tom's list? :unsure:
