  1. That's the one - thanks very much for your help.
  2. Thanks, I've found that now. There are a number of files within that folder though, and it's not clear which one I should choose to create a shortcut. Any ideas? Thanks
  3. I used to access Windows Media Player through an icon on my desktop. I don't know what I've done but it is no longer there. I've tried to put the icon back on but can't find Windows Media Player in my list of Programs, although I know it is there because it automatically opens when I put a music CD into the drive. Can anyone please advise me how I can get the icon back onto my desktop for ease of access? Thanks a lot
  4. It certainly was - I lived in London at the time and got the train up from Euston. Just before the train was due to set off they announced that the match had been postponed. A few Spurs fans got off but I was visiting Irish friends in Manchester for St Patricks Day so carried on. As I was wearing my Latics shirt every time I went to the buffet car or toilet I kept getting stopped by well-meaning strangers telling me the match had been postponed - must have had to explain ten times that I already knew!
  5. At least if they play a gig in Cov I'll be less likely to bump into that tosser Gaunt at one of the Brum gigs.
  6. I understand there will also be a gig in Coventry but details are so far being kept a secret.
  7. I wasn't at the game either. With Mr and Mrs Sideburns stopping over in Oldham for Roger Palmer's testimonial the appeal of having the house to myself was too much for this 17 year-old. In the days before the delights of Roy and Gordon I had to listen to the last few minutes on Clubcall - Diego really would be angry if he knew that he was paying for a premium rate phone call all through the delay before the penalty!!!!
  8. I went for Comodo which seemed fine. It then started prompting me to update as support for the version I had was about to expire. I updated but since then have had all sorts of problems with my pc crashing. I did a system restore but am now still on the original, unsupported version. Don't really know what I'll do next. May try to re-install the updated version when I get chance. Unless anyone can suggest an alternative?
  9. Paddy's Le Donk character is even funnier if you know the person who the character is (allegedly!!) based on - I suspect ThaiLatic does!
  10. It wasn't NWA, it was Run DMC, Public Enemy and (cough) Derek B.
  11. Don't really know the more recent stuff on there but everything else looks good to me. We'll definitely be going. Are you DJing on 13th Dec?
  12. I can sense a Diego story coming. Cue the Hovis music................
  13. Unfortunately I can't make it to the fair. I only have very limited numbers left, having now pretty much stopped selling badges. Wouldn't be worth doing a stall with the quantities I have. Would have loved to come along as a punter though.
  14. My copy of The White Album doesn't have a number stamped on it. I'm no expert but I guess that makes it rarer, and therefore more valuable. Feel free to email me with offers. The reserve price has not yet been reached.
  15. In Nottingham Saturday for Paul Weller gig - staying at Jury's Inn, about two mins walk from Hooters
  16. Not much changed since my student days (early-mid 90s) by the sound of it. I definitely think I'd be a bit old for 5th Ave / 42nd St now. Used to love My Generation nights at The Brickhouse circa '94. Was also a regular at Smile - can't believe it's still going. Might give that a shot, we are staying at Ancoats Travelodge so it's not too far to get back after. Just hope it's as good as it used to be. They used to play a decent amount of sixties garage / girl groups - is it still the same?
  17. Third from left Do you mean like this one? I only have one spare. I also have spares of the badge on the far right in the above photo and all of the following available: FA Cup Semi Final badge set Everton Match badge Play Off badge Set If anyone is interested PM me for prices.
  18. Am I the only one who watches Top Gear shouting "It's only a f****** car!!!!!" at the screen. Sometimes I'm not sure whether they are going to drive it or shag it.
  19. Unless my grey matter is playing tricks with me I seem to remember Wright kicking Earl all over the park and should have been sent off before he scored the equaliser, after which he (and Merson, I think) gave the Vs to the Chaddy End. I suspect this may have been the cause of the abuse, not the colour of his skin as he has claimed many times over the years.
  20. I'm up in Manchester for The Pogues gig on Saturday 13 Dec and am looking for a club to go on to afterwards. Has anyone been to Clint Boon's night at South on a Saturday? Any good? What's the music / atmosphere / clientele like? Any other suggestions for good nights playing Indie / Manchester / Sixties etc on a Saturday night? It's been a while since I was out on a Saturday in Manc.
