What is hacking you off today?

[MK Shrimper]

My laptop sounding like a jet engine on take off - nothing major running and the fan is running ten to the dozen for some reason.

 

[RobM]

Ten to the dozen? Sounds slow.

The weather, nearly June and this morning it's blowing a gale and ****ing down with rain. Bloody Tory Government!

I'm on a roll, Michael Gove on Breakfast TV. He can't help his looks, but I just want to punch him when he talks.

I spent all of yesterday cleaning my windows & conservatory, including it's roof.
A job well done I thought..

Woken up today & now there's grit, dirt & all manner of other **** over the whole lot after all the rain we've had.

Teach me to check the forecast next time :angry:

Speaking of the weather, my building just had an evacuation because a fire alarm went off. After five or so minutes of cozying three or four to an umbrella, we were told it went off by accident. Gah.

Looks like I chose the right week to go to Israel then. It's currently 28C, and will be in the 30s the rest of the week.

Solicitors dragging their feet on the house move. :angry: Want to complete by 20th June but I can't see that happening.

had the same problem with our PC recently, after making sure the fan wasn't blocked I checked task manager and there were a whole load of programs running in the background on start up, if not already done so check task manager / start up tab, and also the performance tabs. If there are a load of programs using memory space in start up or CPU performance is running at near capacity it may be the cause of the fans going nuts?

I used this link; http://www.pcadvisor.co.uk/how-to/desktop-pc/how-speed-up-windows-image-3502902/
which did help somewhat in reducing the background cr@p and unwanted programs. I removed unwanted stuff like old McAfee programs, which I'd replaced etc. The fans have calmed down, however my kids often load tons of gaming stuff which canes it...

I'm not an IT person, so if anyone knows any better feel free to interject :-)

I feel your pain. Our buyer & us are ready to exchange contracts but the solicitors acting for the people we are buying from has yet to get the vendor to sign the draft contracts. There's only 3 parties in the whole chain ffs.
Good Luck with your move, think positive & hope it's all done soon.

Ricky Gervais knowing more about the psychological traits of 26 stone primates than highly trained and professional zoologists. Do the man's talents know any bounds?

Yep, suddenly everyone is an expert on what a 400 pound silverback is going to do with a 4 year old boy who falls into his pit!

Probably not as dangerous as a 400 pound Scottish lesbian couple. Got some more work for zoo sniper if he fancies it.

I seem to have developed a stomach bug and I had three days of cycling planned...

If the gorilla hadn't got shot the police would probably have taken it in for questioning as part of Operation Yewtree

Think I've been caught speeding on the A14, didn't spot the police camera van and wasn't sure what speed I was doing. Will only be 75/80 in a 70, will have to wait and see now!

 

[jassyfa1]

75mph you should be ok with, 80mph should be 3 points or a speeding course
