    QUIZ: Which classic western movie star are you?

    A bit of nonsense for boredom relief. If you're at work MK beware, there are 30 questions. I came out as Randolph Scott which was kind of cool. So get out your white hat, saddle up and off you go...

    Microsoft Office v the free stuff

    My 2003 version of Office has finally reached the point where I can't install it on my Windows 10 laptop as it's been installed on far too many other laptops over the years. So.......what to do, buy a recent edition of Office or have a look at free packages. I've chosen the latter option and...

    Laptops

    I'm after a little bit of help, and was hoping someone amongst us knows more about laptops than me. I'm looking to get one that will be suitable for web surfing, playing the odd game (FM 2015), storing music and photos, that can have Microsoft Office installed and isn't too expensive. Ideally...

    Did anyone pick up on his quotes in respect of the new Spurs shop opening in Southend high street? “It does surprise me they’re opening a store here as their supporters locally seem to be few and far between." “I think it’ll be a good addition to the High Street, but I...

    The Original Rude Boy

    "It's a bit like what Charlie Watts said about the Stones ... five years playing, twenty years waiting around." Sir Buttz Yoddles spoke wearily as he was in discomfort from a horrific abscess for which he had just started taking analgesic medication. His weariness was not helped by the...

    Worst/Most Annoying TV Adverts.

    For me it's those ****ing Microsoft adverts, you know those ones where they set up a shop in some poor unsuspecting sod's home to shame them into buying a new computer.
