excuse me?

the emotcons are down the side when you click on the "reply" button at the bottom of someones post, it also includes what they have said, like i've done with your post

or alternatively do : welcome: without the space between the ":" and the "welcome:"

Try here (http://www.ntli.info/index.php?page=index_v2&id=25&c=8)

Are you uploading via ftp or the upload.ntl... web page (well that shows how often I use the web page then doesn't it.)

Oh yes and hi :wavey:

Stunty
30-01-2004, 18:30
well lets see..

I've tried that bloody awful terapin thing they give awayu - (if I had a load of them I'd give them away too!)
I've tried my own FTP client, FlashFXP, I've tried talking to it nicely, I've shouted at it - stroked it - took the ******* out for lunch, bought it a load of drink, took it round a friend of mines and got it stoned -
and on top of that I still paid a bill each month and its not having any of it!!!
Its only 4Mb of data, and I've been trying to upload this now for five days!

FIVE DAYS!!!!

and I know its not me because I'm not an old hand at this. I have a theory it has something to do with port 21 ??!!??

but I could be wrong...if it is then I'm going to have to wait until all the internet traffic across northampton thins out enough for me to get a look in..
which will probably be next xmas..

like I said, I'm taking it one day at a time.

It's not that our female friends here cant stand up for themselves, as we all know they can very well, but in my view they should not have to.

Just thought it made sense to flash up a possible concern before rather than after the line was crossed.

If you're coming home you must be on SQ 318 then. :)

Chris
30-01-2004, 23:53
If you're coming home you must be on QF 31 then. :)
Assuming that number is a Qantas flight, no, not a bit of it - after having read this before booking my ticket:

http://yobbo.drivelwarehouse.com/archives/006292.html

I'm on SQ318. Having now gone long-haul with both BA and Singapore, I can say Singapore beats BA hands down. Actually if the recommendations I've had are to be believed, Singapore beats just about everyone hands down.

And so the thread topic began to mutate again ... :spin:

30-01-2004, 23:57

Eight hours ahead of you here - I'm boarding in 30 mins to take off in one hour. You got the landing time right tho' ... I will be back in Heathrow just after 3pm and home in time for tea. Of course, by five o'clock my poor bod will be telling me it's 1am Sunday morning. Urrrrggh...

Still, as I keep telling myself, it's an interesting experience I am blessed to enjoy - and as I'm on company business, I'm in business class:D :)

Watched 'Matrix Revolutions' on the way here, seeing as I never got to see it due to chronic shortage of babysitters. It was utter pants. Hopefully 'Master And Commander' is a bit better, I'm planning to watch that on the way home.

I'd better get going, anyways ... been hogging this terminal for half an hour. See you all back in the British corner of cyberspace...
