i replyed to the pm mate
re dns servers that was part of the problem
what the dns servers are in simple terms is web addresses are for humans and easy to remember but the computer needs a ip address but pepole wone remember ip address
so when you type a net address in the dns server looks it up and returns the actuural address ie the ip address
so when the dns server is down say you put https://www.what ever in it wont work but say you trype instead the acturl ip ie https://192,100,0,1 it would work address that start with 192 are local address so that wont acturly go anywhere
but if you go to your lan conection property you can maualy change the DNS server addresss id you internet providers some better routers will let you change dns in router its self for everying rather than haveing to do each computer
that said you can with a virgin router
hope that explains it a but better mate |

The thing is, I know normal, grey, oil-based primer would have covered it and would in turn have covered with a single coat of gloss. I don't want to be putting any more than two coats of paint on a door frame because it's a total pain in the arse. 100% cutting-in with a brush.
Still not enough of a pain to pay someone else £1200 to do it though.
EDIT: And I just found out Mrs stinkwheel has apparently decided we don't need any empty jam jars about the house and has put the two boxes of jam jars I had in the recycling. As such, I have nothing to clean my brushes in, or put motorbike parts/screws in, or paraffin for cleaning chains. Or indeed, for storing jam, preserves, herbs and spices or dried goods. |

When you see a "To Let" sign outside of some shabby property, are you ever tempted to insert an "i" in there? ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

With MCN it's a protest against having to speak and spell the superior colonialist language, cos the Scots were never able to develop a proper one of their own. ____________________ Chickenystripgeezer's Biking Life (Latest update 19/10/18) Belgium, France, Italy, Austria tour 2016 Picos de Europa, Pyrenees and French Alps tour 2017 Scotland Trip 1, now with BONUS FEATURE edit, 5/10/19, on page 2 Scotland Trip 2 Luxembourg, Black Forest, Switzerland, Vosges Trip 2017

I just don't tell them anything. Total communications blackout.
I'm with Octopus but I don't have a contract with them, they took on my account from another company.
What really upsets them is they don't have any bank details for me because I sent a reading and paid my bill quarterly with the company i did have a contract with. I continue to do so, totally ignoring all their emails requesting I set up a direct debit, that I send them monthly readings and that my account is in arrears. I've done this for a good 3 years now.
I also ignore all their emails about smart meters. ____________________ “Rule one: Always stick around for one more drink. That's when things happen. That's when you find out everything you want to know.”
