Clive just for something to do I upgrade a laptop running Vista to win 10 ok it's not the fastest but it runs faultlessly, being aware that the free upgrade had finished I purchased a windows key from SCDkey link

It only cost $6 so I was not to concerned if it did not work but it worked out fine, my advice would be to make the jump to win 10 with a clean install.

Today received two reportedly from EE stating that they couldn't take this months debit 😂 shame I'm not with EE.What does seem strange however is that I did once have two EE accounts and the spam emails appeared to know that !

Not wishing to highjack MichaelR thread but could I ask how important are HTTPS websites to members ? The reason I ask is I maintain a website for my club Link and I,m asking myself is it work spending yet more of the members money on security certificates.

Garry if you do fit a water shut off valve make sure the bore of the valve doesn't restrict the water flow

I needed to do a quick repair many years ago on the oil tank on a Ellison starter as I remebr I vee'd the joint preheated both tank and rods. The weld looked really c*ap but the tank did not leak and although I purchased a replacment tank I never fitted it.
