This is especially for Big Al, courtesy of little willie
It is just before Scotland v England at the next World Cup Group game.
Rooney goes into the English changing room to find all his team mates looking a bit glum. "What's up?" he asks. "Well, we're having trouble getting motivated for this game. We know it's important but it's only Scotland. They're crap and we can't be bothered".
Rooney looks at them and says "Well, I reckon I can beat these by myself, you lads go down the pub."
So Rooney goes out to play Scotland by himself and the rest of The English team go off for a few pints. After a few jars they wonder how the game is going, so they get the landlord to put the teletext on. A big cheer goes up as the screen reads "England 1 -Scotland 0 (Rooney 10minutes)".
He is beating Scotland all by himself! Anyway, a few more pints later and the game is forgotten until someone remembers "It must be full time now, let's see how he got on".
They put the teletext on."Result from the Stadium "England 1 (Rooney 10 minutes) -Scotland 1"(Angus McSh*te 89 minutes)".
They can't believe it, he has single handedly got a draw against Scotland!!
They rush back to the Stadium to congratulate him. They find him in the dressing room, still in his gear, sat with his head in his hands.
He refuses to look at them. "I've let you down, I've let you down."
"Don't be daft, you got a draw against Scotland , all by yourself. And they only scored at the very very end!
"No, No, I have, I've let you down..........
I got sent off after 12 minutes.

20 is not bad for a DVD, probably find one cheaper but it would mean looking around, its just the little bit of guidance you need to fit it, they should help at PC world some of the young lads in there are really up to it with PC's
and helpful.
If you want to stop the clicking just: power off, remove tower case, earth, unplug power lead from DVD drive from inside, it is straightforward :-))
