If the router is stopping working then there is a good chance that either the router or your ADSL filters are at fault. I would try changing the filter first to make sure that isn't the problem (assuming you are using one).

(Edit --> Have a look at the Internet Problems thread. Looks like it could be a known fault)

Yep, I doot da battery car wi da wind turbine on da roof is no far awa noo !!

Ah good, in that case it is probably just the omnipotent one spilt his Earl Grey on the Profile cluster.

Seems to be working okay here.

Well according to that, daveh has been ripped off. The AA has petrol at EXACTLY £101.035477 a litre in New Zealand.

The funny thing is that it has increased quite a lot over the past year in NZ and many people think the cost is getting ridiculous. I keep pinching myself as a reminder to how much I used to pay.

Perhaps this could help the tourist industry after all...

We already have several Up Helly Aa threads, please keep this one about the Tall Ships. Cheers.

Am off to NZ in a week's time. Will be spending time in both islands.

It looks to be a fabulous place to visit.

Indeed it is, I can guarantee you will enjoy yourself.

In the Bay of Islands, NZ joost noo. Fine wadder as weel.

I have found Mindmaps to be very useful when researching topics. The ability to add and move info over time is very beneficial. Most recently I have been using Freemind. Does what it says on the tin.

Here is a screengrab from when I was aggregating some info on Sumburgh Airport.

Happy Birthday Shetlink, have a good one, you're getting on a bit now.

Early warning system activated. People that flout the rules should be banned whether it be speeding or not adhering to Terms & Conditions of a public forum. One is as bad as the other...

Cracking pic. I got a view of it in-between the clouds as it was moving over the N/NW part of the sky, by then however it was too late. Nice and bright and white.

I had planned to do a whole bunch of then and now shots a while back but never found the time. Example that a took o' Fitful/Sumburgh Farm:-

Quite an odd feeling knowing that you are standing in exactly the same spot on the side of a hill where J.D Ratter stood many years before.

Happening just about now over here but the bloody clouds have come in and are currently giving me no chance to see it. The worst part being that I just got an 8" Dobsonian and I am gonna miss the chance to use it!

How's that any different from offline dating?

Consider it merged and thanks to both of you for a good resource.

Disabling BBCode is handy if you want to show somebody what tags to use. But then there are always the

tags for that.

Not a bad idea but could take a considerable bit of coding to get something that works reliably, even then it would only be useful if people frequently updated it.

In the meantime, there is always this thread and the Schools Closure thread.

I would imagine that if ZE1 is eligible then the rest of Shetland should be getting as well.

They can be deleted providing you are having no issues with any of the updates. When Windows updates it stores a copy of the update in case it needs to be uninstalled/reinstalled.

Time to bring this thread back up top with a quick edit:-

Pinnacle Studio can be a bit of a pain when it comes to adding timestamps. I believe that if you import it as a DV avi it *might* add the timestamp.

An easier option would be to try DVdate
