h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

we have a black bin for normal waste and then a green bin for garden stuff and a red box for glass, papers, cardboard and tin cans.

we are supposed to be getting more boxes so that we can seperate them more than we can right now. more work for us

they should be paying us to do it for them.

not only that, the extra boxes take up so mucxh space and not everyone has room for them.

hi helen
-
i keep the green bin under the stairs, as im on my own, i have a smaller one than other people.
-
i also build a shelf above the bin, so i can put the blue bin, and canvas bags on top.
-
they gave us a grey one for paper, i dont read any, so its in the backyard empty.
-
there was talk of a red one, for food recycling, but nothing as come of it yet.
-
well looks like rain before the days out again, cant do the back garden anyway, its soaking wet.
-
its town if the housing dont ring before 10am, get lotto, cyber, then a loaf, and home again,for around 3pm.
-
did you see the photos ive been posting on a journal, of places in china. could be many more to add as the months go on. jim xx

Hiya.

I havent been online as my computer died. Its taken me till now to get a new one. Its a super duper one with go faster stripes.
Im now on vista, whatever that means

hi
-
i was wondering where you had gone.
-
vista is the windows that replaced the xp,home and xp,pro
-
there is a new one out this week, windows 7.
-
at the cyber they only use the xp
-
a few people have been having pc problems one way or the other,
-
prof animal, had low incoming signal for weeks.
-
kat, the thinker, had to have her pc upgraded, and as just had to change servers, yesterday.
-
neve used a pc, with vista on, so cant say anything about it.
-
some say the mozilla browser, you can download from google is good with it, instaed of the windows, explorer.
-
dont forget to put your clocks back after 12 midnight, lol jim xx

was it you who told me of a site that stops pop-ups????
My old pc died before I had saved anything and so ive lost the lot. The brain cell is struggling to remember what i had on there

hi
-
there was a anti-popup, on one of the toolbars, could be the yahoo,google or msn.
-
have a look on the google for toolbars, there is a diagram usualy of whats on the toolbar.
-
if you dont have a anti-virus one, download the personal adition of avg.
-
for a adawre, you could use the free spybot search and distroy.
-
jim

hi just on the way out
-
hope your pc isnt giving you probs jim xx

Hiya.

Im still getting used to it. Most of it is the same, but there are some things that I have to get used to. The main thing is that is doesnt keepm freezing and I have to shut down to start again and I can get into sites that were limited with the tower. I can now get into ebay and tesco

hi helen
-
as the tag says, ive notched another year on the stick lol.
-
62, and do i feel it now
-
when you cant get into some sites, its useually because the security setting in the windows, are to high.
-
you need them at medium to low.
-
but always make sure you have a antivirus and adawre, and the popup stopper of some kind.
-
im at the cyber about 11am, im getting three hrs free from the boss, lol jim xx

It wasnt the security systems. It was a worn out old machine that didnt want to play anymore

Happy Birthday

hi helen
-

-

-

-

-
