    Towing bars ?

    Needed to tow a vehicle with my car the other day, wanted to get a towing bar but Halfords had none in stock so had to get a rope. It did the job but it was an awful experience ! They're still out of stock so I've looked online and found a couple of options. Opinions needed from anyone...

    Contract ending - SIM only or contract again ?

    Considering my options here and I think I might be better off (and out of contract!) going SIM only. Had my HTC Desire for 2 years nearly, love it. It does everything I need/want and after 2 years still feels fast enough and 'up there' with the top phones still. Only thing it lacks is...

    Three finger tap = Dashboard. WTF !

    I've been using a program called 'MiddleClick' for quite some time now on the Mac. It simulates a middle click on the mouse (obviously), enabling a new tab to open or close for instance. This was working fine until JUST this moment. I switched off my wireless keyboard, and then plugged the...

    Apple wireless keyboard - battery life ?

    I've had my iMac for well over a month now and it still says 100% battery for the keyboard. They keyboard is never switched off, but the computer is mostly used for internetery activities and not much typing (compared to being in an office for instance). Is this lying, or will this charge...

    iMac HDD died ?

    Yesterday my (2.66 C2D 2008) iMac was running very slowly, then it crashed. Rebooted it, crashed again after a short while. Turned it on again, and it eventually came up with a white screen with [ ? ] on it which suggests to me it can't find the OS or boot at all !? Left it off about an...

    The Swiss do Hill Climbing....

    ... they're not very good at it: Lots of Clios getting it wrong, and even a sneaky clip of lbrench practicing saving up for coilovers. Maybe their Gov't should allow them to do more interesting things more often. They'd probably get the hang of it before the world's oil reserves run out...

    Insurance - driving other cars... trade policy covered car.

    I'm old, and therefore can drive other cars covered on my own policy third party... Up until about a month ago, I was on the OH's policy named so had no issues either way. Now, she's put it under her Dad's traders policy. My question...: Can I legally drive this car now ? My...

    Videos ? Editing / noob / help ?!

    I'd class myself as a competent amateur behind an SLR taking stills .. however, when I switch the trigger to 'Video' on my 7D, it all goes wrong. Filming on a stationary tripod, in bright (back lit) sunlight, they still look awful .. doesn't seem to matter which lens I use, they just dont seem...

    Lovely weather this w/e so I took the opportunity to do a little stable housekeeping. Made the woman [happy now?] move all the wood to the shed, and sweep the floor (chainsaws make one hell of a mess!!) and made it nice and clean for the cars that night: So, the Scoob got an airing and the...
