TP, I understand your pain of going away, I used to work in hotels in a couple of business districts abroad. English speaking regular guests used to get on well with me because I knew the stuff they needed to know, simple stuff like where's good to watch the premier league or GAA, a decent kebab etc... or sometimes just to have a chat. Working abroad could be funny, a lot of people told me I spoke excellent English, one women from Cork asked me if I learned to speak English in Ireland but it was clear I wasn't Irish, I told her I did, she asked how long I was in Ireland, I told her 19 years (I was 21 at the time), she had no reaction.

**ToxicPaddy** · 12-11-2011, 14:11

hmmm.. and where was she from?

Ahh the only plans I have for my time over there is to visit the Xmas market. Always a buzz around them. Was in the Xmas market in Vienna and Bratislava last year and was class.

Everyone always up for a chat and laugh espcially around the beer tents

So hows everyone today? Hows the turd in a tin tasting SUN?

Tried using something like CCleaner to clear out dodgey registry and old temp files?

The video keeps stalling, the picture is frozen but the sound keeps going normally! I can't do anything but press TGC off button and restart it. The battery is gone totally and it decided to not turn or charge Tuesday.

**Pembily** · 12-11-2011, 14:24

Yup and defraged et al!

Batteries do have a fairly short shelf life so I wouldnt worry too much about that. Try connecting the laptop to a monitor and see if the video freezes on the screen its connected to.

Will help narrow it down a little. What make/model is it?

**Pembily** · 12-11-2011, 14:26

I don't have a monitor to check it out. Its an acer 5920!
