    Huntingside, it smells like there’s something burning in my apartment... but I can’t find it! hmmm :pac: bizzaaarrreee...

    @ G, found one of those discs a while back with a heap of Tartan Asia Horror movies on it... but nothing to play them on :(

    My three year old laptop has a DVD drive/burner. They can still be bought! I'm in the market for an even newer one. I also have a DVD Player/Recorder. My Tech desk has a DVD drive as an extension. with a burner! I even have a few VHS decks, a mini DV deck and an S-VHS deck. I have to have it all, along with the current day stuff like my iMac. But the struggling and often rebuilt PC still delivers loads too. My tech desk is an all in one place that can do loads of stuff!

    G! Something in that message sparked a thought and off I went and found an old DVD player under my telly in my room, one of them cheapo jobbies from power city that plays EVERYTHING! Tremendous Your “tech desk” sounds like a wonderful place buddy :D and not too dissimilar to my own PC, the poor thing is always getting messed with! Even though all it really does is Kali these days.

    Hope ya feel better soon Grem!

    Bedside

    Delighted with myself earlier as I got a bright idea.

    To backtrack a bit, last November I did a clear out at home and decided to sell my items I no longer want, on the facebook marketplace. One of the items is a pair of goggles that I had brought in lifestyle sports by mistake. Still brand new in their box.

    Unfortunately there has been no interest in them so I was thinking of how to get rid of them. Got the bright idea of posting in one of the local facebook groups (thats not a buy and sell group). Wasn't sure if the admin of the group was going to allow the post or not, but thankfully they did. Anyway that worked cos I have someone coming to collect them on Tuesday :D

    Buyer cancelled meeting :( oh well, back they go on Facebook Marketplace/groups/eBay/Adverts/Donedeal

    I'm bedside

    *Rant*

    I started an online business (Etsy, making wood pendants, how exciting) in November and run it in my spare time while my daughter's at school.

    It goes well, I get good sales and reviews... and then they shut the schools until.... November probably.

    Can't get any work done, can't fulfill orders...

    ARRRRGGGHHHHHHHH!

    (If you're bored and want a Valentines Day heart pendant, I have a sale on. At least I can still sell to people in Ireland.)

    Coppice Wood Pendants

    I'll even throw in gift wrapping for free for Boardsies.

    Like loads of others I'm currently stuck in a Currys/PC World scenario. A .ie website but shipping it from the UK. Hard to believe these guys used to have an Empire.:rolleyes:

    Same here G. Ordered an oven last Sunday week. They took payment on Monday, refunded it on Wednesday, text today to say delivery will be on Monday coming and took payment today.

    Shambles

    I reckon with that team they'll be able to placate the trumpers if king cheeto himself doesn't start his claimed new political party. I would think though that it could be a treacherous year or two.

    Deskside, desperately searching for my motivation, or any motivation for that matter.

    Wouldn't mind chilling on a beach right now, or ANY place that isn't my home office...

    Good luck trying to figure me out. I haven't managed that myself yet!

    The walls of the home office feel like they’re closing in on me here. Actually looking forward to a lunchtime run in the rain.
