      That's a shame, David. what a lottery it is. It seemed okay our way until I packed in at 10:40, the odd period of blur where I stopped the capture.

  9. And another weekend of diabolical weather!

      You should know better than to buy new kit :grin: Although at the moment it doesn't seem to make any difference, the weekend weather is just horrible regardless.

      Yes, it was quite fun. Don't think the ending was particularly good, but then, they've postponed the final episode to put on the beginning of season 2 (?!). Have also enjoyed watching Star Trek Discovery Season1, but I do wish they would stop messing around with the Klingons!

      Wish they'd stop talking bloody klingon. I have subtitles!!!

  12. Bacon sandwich with lashings of brown sauce to distract me from the clouds :D

      Bacon sandwich does sound really good, minus the brown sauce though. I will substitute the brown sauce for sausages

      It's an older processor so may end up replacing the whole laptop to be honest but I figure I would try the cheaper solution first!

       

    3. xtreemchaos

      xtreemchaos

      it should speed up data trans with any cpu, if you you do look for another pc, take a look at the AMD ryzen cpu, there very fast, thay have the edge on intel at the mo and a good bit cheaper. charl. 

    4. David Smith

      David Smith

      Thanks for the tip Charl.

  23. Seeing looks better today....I think!
