finally managed to speak to tgj on the phone (IMG: style_emoticons/default/smile.gif ) meanwhile.. have ordered a which best buy Siemens Gigaset phone, after error messages galore. (IMG: style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif ) doesn't bode well (IMG: style_emoticons/default/ph34r.gif ) Hopefully it was just because i have been ruthless with saying no to cookies. Don't tell me. get a mac. *sigh* i would sell my crappy philips phone on...

my effing ipod wouldn't sync last night, it reckons I'm out of disk space for a new playlist that I've added, despite removing 20+ albums and adding only 5 more, I still had 15GB spare. Existing playlists wouldn't delete either. I reckon I'll zap it tonight and resync again from scratch, which'll take a few hours. Still, it worked properly this morning so it's not all bad, and I might even consider adding...

QUOTE(Beryl the Peril @ Feb 18 2009, 09:59 AM) i won't need to lug a laptop about much. maybe take it on holiday. It is mainly for a bit more flexibility indoors and if we are going back to having a machine each, then size matters. That's the reason i've always had laptops: two Toshibas, a Dell and now this one that seems more like a frigging accessory for a Barbie than a genuine piece of kit. The dirty great...

If not I'll pm you my work email address and I'll see if I can do something here. Oh Thanks Jon that's really kind. I did try Aquamans suggestion and i also tried opening it in Notepad and wordpad but it was different variations on the...
