  1. What other accent would an ex member of the Hitler Youth have ?
  2. Putting up is beyond me! Anyway word for word, the article says: French & UK TV- one box, one dish. From the end of the month,we will be able to supply & Install a satellite system consisting of one dish, one cable and one satellite set top box. The difference is that this receiver captures the French TNTSAT system and also the British free to air TV & and radio channels. So for the first time with just the one fixed dish you will be able to receive all the BBC channels, Channel 4 & it's digital stablemates, Channel 5 plus TF1, your local France 3, Arte, & M6. In fact, there will be several hundred in total- all the free to air channels from Astra 1 and Astra 2 combined. Hopefully we will be able to demonstrate this at the Trade Fair on 25 September (at Pillac) Again, apologise for my typo's.
  3. Sorry for typo 1&2 not 1 72. Channels mentioned are ITV CH 4 etc BBC chan 5. TF1 France 2 regional 3 Arte & M6
  4. I see from Big Dish newsletter, that from the end of this month they will be able to supply/install a satellite system to receive English and French FTA channels, with 1 dish, 1 cable and 1 set top box. several hundred channels from Astra 1 72.
  5. I see it is on offer at Leclerc from tomorrow at about €3,50 Kilo.
  6. If you are happy to view via your PC, then www.playtv.fr/television will give you most channels apart from TF1. No subscription and good quality.
  7. Has anyone got an Epson Stylus DX 4050. Today I am unable to print as two buttons ie the status monitor and the inkcartridge replacement buttons seem to have been disabled? I feel sure a cartridge needs replacement but without these 2 buttons in use I am unable to carry out a replacement. Any help would be appreciated.
  8. My Dell has been down to only 1% disc space remaining. As usual have used CCleaner a couple of times and now some 2 weeks later is at 50%, should be around 60 %, probably resolve shortly!
  9. I quite understand the amount is paltry. Don't know what the rate was at cash machines yesterday, but on the surface it would seem that for those who are lucky enough(for the moment) to have transaction free charges they are better off.
  10. The rate yesterday was roughly 1.21,tourist rate 1.18 and HIFX quote 1.16 for a transaction of 1500€. Bizarre!

    eye test

    I have recently bought 2 pairs of glasses from Spex4less. Both on special offer, one a pair of transitions sunglasses.The whole process was very straightforward.Within days of receiving my progressif, semi rimlesss, I was hit over the head by a large branch of the tree, and the glasses were knocked off. I was in a daze, and eventually realised I had dropped them retraced my steps but trod on them in the undergrowth, They were twisted, the glass out etc .explained the situation to the company I then returned the glasses,thinking a new frame would be needed. Returned to me quickly,like new, no charge even for the postage. Will certainly be using again.
  12. I too have a Dell, similar age. From time to time I have the same situation arising.After defragmenting etc, and a couple of reboots it seems to right itself. I had tried removing programmes etc, but it did not seem to make any appreciable difference. I have no technical knowledge, hopefully someone may be able to explain.
  13. Thank you so much for your help-exactly as you described.
  14. has anyone tried the Typhoon jet junior which is electric,comes with 16 metres of cable, and transformer. Cost around 400 euros.
  15. If you google there are other videos, and if you look at Amazon.com there are some reviews.Certainly looks interesting.
  16. Japanese already in the final stages of producing Hologram TV-no need for glasses.
  17. My wife is too undertake a test shortly.Was "apprehensive" in the UK, but with the language as well is even more so. Are there any questions or terminology used that might be useful to know before attending?
  18. There's a lot of these cards about. Main problem is that you have to UK resident to obtain one.
  19. For live French TV via your PC, try www.playtv.fr No download needed, TF1 not available, and I don't know if it works in UK
  20. For replays of virtually all French TV programmes try: http://teleobs.tv-replay.fr Don't know if it works in UK.
  21. Second that. First class response by the lady I spoke to.The claim itself took 15 weeks rather than the 8 weeks stated in the brochure.
  22. I prefer Humax,but Argos have a Bush for under £50.
  23. Don't know about Annabelle's, bit I see that since the new government took office £17500 has been spent on wine for the foreign office. The bill for 2009/10 was £80662- a reduction of 30% on the previous year. Times are hard!
  24. I just hope those who are abusing the system result in the authorities looking closer at other payments made ie Winter fuel payments. for those of us who supposedly live in permanent sunshine.
  25. Suggest you download. I rang and it took 1 month for the pack to arrive. I was 65 in early May, my pack arrived with them in mid March and despite a phone call I am still waiting for the award of my pension.
