...oops you're right it's "PrtScn" on mine and it also says SysRq underneath it.

I also just checked it out and you can paste the screen shot into your word processor. I did not know that, I've always used Photoshop.

It is indeed. Not that I believe it. I have found that the weather forecast varies according to the source. I shop around until I find the best one.

I do know that's it's bloody cold today. I finished work for the weekend a little while ago (I start very early) and went to grab a beer from the garage. Frozen solid. Almost as cold as the temperature in our bedroom the last couple of days.

Last weekend was cold here. We fetched the water buckets in and had to run hot water over them for ages before we could get the big chunk of ice out. We put them out again around eight and they were back to being one lump by noon.

Isnt that what this sort of thing is for... although if you can get a 12V one its less likely to kill the beasts at some later point in its life (17000 electrocuted cattle a year apparently due to faulty 120V de icers.)


Or this one is all built in

Looks nifty. I'll get one to try out on the missus.

I think the 12v solar powered ones make a lot of sense but a purist would use a ball peen hammer and go around once an hour.

Oh dear, have you done something to upset Mrs (or is it Colonel) Souv?

Oh, I dunno. I have, apparently, been responsible for some grave but as yet unidentified crime. I'd apologise but I don't know what for until she starts talking to me again. I think it may be a long weekend.

Finishing first again?

Forget to pull her nightie down when you'd finished?

Making her sleep in the wet patch?
