  6. Really Annoying Pop Up

    in e-Saints

    Posted

    Aha, I thought that was what it was, I think the question I am really going to regret though is this one.

    Why bean flicker?

    The wee man in the boat :rolleyes:
    I am sooooo not taking any further part in this conversation. :ph34r:

    Aye. :)

    Too much detail.

    Try thinking of stacking cans of beans in an unheated supermarket built on blancmange, in midwinter.

    (That won't get you any nearer the truth but it will help you take your mind off the subject. Failing that, go for a run followed by a cold shower.)

    1. That'll please the boo-boys.

    2. The Celtic fans look classy in their Orange away-strips.

    3. The *** support does better harmonies on The Fields of Athenry than the ***** do.

    4. Gus set the team up perfectly, today.

    5. Peanuts! Macaroon Bars!

  13. Tv's Knackered. Any Ideas?

    Cockles may not be as wrong as he might jokingly think...

    Hitting items like a tv on its side....

    ....can mibbe possibly make them work a wee bit for a little while.

    This is cos sometimes the connecting solders have fractured due to heat/age/movement etc. and the hit on the side temporarily 'joins' the connection up again.

    If you are bold and have a solder-iron (and solder) you could open the back up... UNPLUGGED/UNCONNECTED and check for fractured solders...

    you can also lightly hoover and clean it, and ensure that any valves (this would be in the olden days) are firmly inserted(NSS could help with technique, here).

    My TV is about 18 or 19 years old. So old it has run out of repeats to show.

    Mind you, I haven't switched it on since March 2007.

    I believe it still works.

    I hope this helps? :)

    But I'd be amazed, if it does.

    This is a funny thread and for more than one reason. :lol:

    It is. :lol:

    Here's an idea...

    ...start a new thread entitled:

    Top 5 reasons why this is a funny thread.

    :rolleyes:

    ps I must confess that I spent some time trying to think of 'celeb dead *** fans'.

    Dead being the sole way I could admit to them being anythinh appproaching 'Top'.

    I'm happy that CC dived in afore me. :)

    Good yin, Wilbur!

  15. Top 5 Things To Do When You're Dead

    I merely ask since if a ghost loses the ability to become sexually stimulated, in might not be worth hanging around netball teams' dressing rooms after all. What a depressing thought.

    Aesthetics still count.

    They tell me that when you get old that 'abilities' may dwindle or be lost.

    It wouldn't stop me hanging around 'invisibly'.... :)

    Walking around the extreme southern tip is lovely, looking west is Arran, great sight.

    Fuxake. :unsure:

    Those floods that FJ spoke about must have been real fierce - if they washed Arran all the way round west of MoK...

    tell all the world to come and peep

    Long Tall Shorty has gone to sleep...."

    1. Walk north along Macrahanish Beach (and if you carry on a wee bit norf ver a very rocky stretch, there's a nice pub on another nice beach.)

    2. Walk south along Macrahanish Beach (and if you carry on a wee bit souf, there's a nice pub.)

    3. Walk aross the causeway to see the painting in the cave on Davaar Island then walk round the base of the cliffs and mibbe go up top before crossing back to the mainland and a pub in Cammlton.

    4. Walk down to the lighthouses at the end of the Mull, look across to Ireland, consider walking north along the cliffs, walk back to your car and drive to a pub.

    5. Check out some of the pubs.
