I am feeling rather pleased with myself. Just installed a new hard drive on my laptop and so far so good

Thanks for the present Golddog.
I will try it out tomorrow, if the wife lets me?
I had three presents in addition to yours golddog.
A CD I never wanted., 20, and a new jumper, the jumper proved a lucky charm as both me and the team won our pool match tonight.
Will wear it again tomorrow as I am playing again.
Could get quite smelly if I hit a winning streak.

I think NIS will do very well and may even become a target itself. Long term hold and possible return of the dividend!

Thanks, Poochy. Just checked the leaderboard and notice the girlies doing very well. Three in the top five. Long may that be the case!

Hi,I have never posted here so not sure if I can or would anyone be interested
in reading about the following???
I am Irish but am in Spain and have an Irish mastercard with Spanish address.
My task was :- Booking and paying - via ebookers.com - for a return flight
from Helsinki to Malaga for someone else.The story is long,very funny - in my
opinion - as complicated as a C.I.A/F.B.I operation/spiders web and involves
Indian call centre operators-companies cutting costs
Anyone interested in me posting it here ???

Hi:Thanks for welcome.
Task :-Book and pay online for a return flight - for someone else - from
Helsinki to Malaga.
......
I always use ebookers :-
www.ebookers.com----refered me to www.e.bookers/fi : finland.No English so guess
what to do.I insert Helsinki/Malaga and the dates.Press and see prices between
500 euros and 1500 euros for economy.I,obviously,pick 500 euro flights.I am
unable to book as cannot pay for another person - I am not flying.I email
ebookers,uk for solution.They- despite working every 24 hours - do not reply.
I phone next day and put through to Indian call centre.They tell me no 500
euro flights on ANY day near the days and that the Finnish site is wrong.She
phones me back and spends an hour on the phone looking at innumerable options
and explaining same - complicated as I find it difficult to understand her
Indian accent and her my Irish accent.All hope of a 500 euro fare appears lost.
Suddenly,she sees one and guess what:it is the exact same flight as the one
I saw on the site.Booking :- Irish c.c.with Spanish address not accepted as
impossible - she says-to do security check.Supervisor repeats and tells me
a long and complicated procedure to prove everything is o.k.After about half
an hour I persuade him to try.15 mins later he says o.k - no problem.I repeat
the times/flight/cost and she-again-tells me there is a mistake about price
and that 20/30 euros added for some costs.Eventually that is eliminated but
tells me the fare is 580 euros approx.I accept.I request she e.mails me very
detailed information about flight times,etc and payment confirmation.She does.
Next day I am informed by the passenger that they have checked with the AIRLINE
and were told that money not paid and booking cancelled.
-------I have to go now but part 2 later if you like ??

Afternoon people!!
GD - Great to know the food's in for next week - I'm sure several
of these big gorgeous hunkie men will go get more logs for the fire...(??)
Now here's a dilemma for you chaps.....Yes that was a compliment guys,
No you didn't imagine it...
Was it shallow female tactics cos the logs pile is
getting low and the weather's cccold
OR has the bunny hit the Cab Sauv' too hard and can't see straight
any more!!
((I'm playing guys!!! Drinks on me!!))

You'd have probably spilled some.
