My wife owns a Citreon Xsara 1.4i and, for some time now, we have been topping up her engine oil from odd gallon cans we've had around the place. Nothing special - just oil. Having run out of supplies...
I have received an email with an attachment which my compter will not open on the grounds that I have 'no program associated with it'. It advises me to get on to Folder Options to sort it out, but I...
Christians often quote the mantra (obviously without thinking about it) that Jesus died on the cross to ‘save’ us and that our sins will be forgiven. (Not mine, I hastily add: sins are a...
I was reminded of this by the post below about lines of longitude. There is an old riddle that says that if I walk a mile south, then a mile east (or west), then a mile north, I will be back where I...
This should probably be posted on the Law site but I thought it would be more interesting to get a general view. No UK citizen has to seek permission to leave or enter his/her own country (unless, of...
A naive question which shames me. Kind people here told me how to download Just BASIC and I am ploughing through the Tutorial without any problem... ...except that nowhere does it tell me how to...
Whever I try to download something from the internet (such as the BASIC programs kindly recommended by folks in a post below) the download seem to work but I'm then left with a blank screen whch says...
The main theme of naomi's post below was diluted by digressions into the the subject of the Turin Shroud. May we discuss that separately? The interesting thing about this cloth is you can cast doubt...
..to all ABers. It's that wonderful time of year when those of us who don't believe a word of either of the two different nativity stories can join in the wonderful songs, carols, poems and literature...
I have waffled on this site for many years but don’t bother any more. It seems that everything has been said many times: the reasons why religious belief is irrational; the lack of historical...
In a thread below Truthabounds claimed, on very flimsy grounds, that prayer works.. So how would one set up a rigorous double-blind test for the efficacy of prayer? My claim is that the problems are...
Further to my scanner query below, I now realise that I used to scan for attaching to emails using ControlCentre, but ControlCentre is no longer there. How do I get it back? Thanks.
Until yesterday scanning to email from my Brother DCP-350C printer/scanner was easy. (I run Windows XP) I would merely click on SCAN TO EMAIL on the printer, press OK and START, the scan would operate...
No, not mine, the one on my vacuum cleaner. You know the sort of thing: the suction from the cleaner rotates a turbo wheel which drives a rotating brush. The head has stopped working. I have had it...
To the relief of many, I'm sure, I can no longer post answers because the button I need to press to submit my answer no longer appears on my screen. Following the posts re Adam and Eve it's fun to...
For some reason I can no longer post replies on AB - there is no SUBMIT button or whatever it is called after my reply. Anyway, thank you for your answers. I'd forgotten until Clanad mentioned it...
Last year I grew broccoli from seed. It grew and grew but produced no broccoli florets. This year I grew it from plugs bought at the garden centre and the same thing has happened. The plants are...
