Good sir/ madam, I find your stance on civil discourse deeply disquieting. In an age when so many bury their heads in the sand, refusing to confront even the most modest concerns, one cannot help but be reminded of a far darker era—when complacency and willful blindness paved the way for atrocities on the scale of Nazi Germany. Small problems, if left to fester, can swiftly grow into monstrous evils that threaten the very fabric of our society. Allow me to draw upon a memory from my own family history to illustrate the gravity of this point. During the Blitz, when bombs rained down upon London night after night, my mother still found the resolve to pick up after our beloved Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Petuna. Even in the face of unimaginable chaos, she refused to shirk her basic responsibilities. Such simple acts of care and integrity, even under fire, stand as a testament to the kind of unwavering diligence we ought to uphold in more peaceful times. Hence, I beseech you to look inward and examine what else you might be letting slip by with your ostrich-like aversion to conflict. Far too often, those who choose not to see are the ones who unwittingly allow true dangers to flourish. By refusing to speak out or engage, we risk enabling the very forces that degrade our communities and tear at the seams of our shared humanity. -
Hello all - The Met have advised me that my car, stolen on New Year's Eve, is still in the area as the license plate has pinged on the NPR system a few times. But they are not able to know where it actually goes, as it's being driven around, and so cannot recover it. So if - on the off chance - anyone happens to see it, parked or moving: 2004 grey SmartCar, soft top, plate LB04 FTU, I would appreciate it if you could let me know where and when. A quick text is all I need: 07748 654889. Every other aspect has already been dealt with. Just trying to recover myself. Many thanks in advance. -

Thanks for the tip @buffruffly. We've had Richard here all week refurbing our sash windows. He's done a great job and we are pleased with the craftsmanship and the value. He is very polite and tidy too. Unfortunately, for others looking for his help, he just told me as he is now in his 60s, he may move onto doing something else as it is quite hard manual work. -
Thanks Vladi, I will try this. I was very unimpressed by the John Lewis tech attempts, but unfortunately not surprised. However whatever I do, the outcome is likely to be that whatever is wrong it will need repairing, and as the laptop is under guarantee I don't want to do anything which could invalidate the guarantee, as something else could go wrong once this is fixed (it's a two year guarantee). The thing that most annoys me about the way they go about things is just starting off with a factory reset. It's not just losing the data, it's having to reinstall everything that was on there, and reset all the settings etc 🤬 It just seems a lazy way forward to me. At least I have only lost recent data, all my historic data is backed up on Carbonite, albeit mostly duplicated. Carbonite say they have no way of accessing my laptop under the circumstances. Stable doors and bolting horses, but I am presently putting all the stuff from my old Dell laptop onto the external hard drive, just as a precaution in case I somehow lose the Carbonite backup. The Dell still works, just mostly very very slowly, but randomly speeds up 🤣
