I've had my hair cut for free quite a few times by being a model for hair dressing students. They're under stylist's supervision so they still do a really good job, and it saves about £50 a time. Last time I went it took over 3 hours though 8O
That helps a lot, saving money that way. Three hours.. yes, that's a loooong time :P

I bet you have beautiful hair! :)

Also, thanks to you and ImAnAspie!

Oh s**t! Is it incompatible with another program you have installed?

Yeah, got the black screen and cursor of death... Laptop doesn't have a main screen anymore ( THANKS TO AUSSIE CUSTOMS :evil: ) so using an external TV monitor. However the geniuses at Microsoft have not ever added the code to be able to access safe mode or bios from an external monitor... Have to do it through main screen which i dont have. So effectively seems my laptop has become a very expensive paperweight! One more option is to create a flash ISO and hope i had the bios set to allow flash boots but i have a feeling i turned that off before screen was broken! ahhh :evil:

The house down the road is having a party and they're singing really bad karaoke.
I thought it was cats yowling at first. 8O

^^That's way above my level of computer understandings I'm afraid. Sending it to repair may not be economically profitable? Depending on how old it is, and how expensive it was. I totally understand your frustration.

I'm just pissed because I'm not invited. :x :lol:

OMG you would have to be really drunk to sing that badly.
"Sweet Caroline" doesn't sound so sweet.

Nah, i know as much as they do. Even more most of the time! Often have people give me systems to fix the so called pros are unable to do...

Hope you can sort something out with your laptop, uncle.

Froya, there's a woman singing now and she sounds not too bad.

I'm going to bed.
Hope I can sleep with all that racket.
Good night. :heart:

Have a slight moral dilemma and wish for some advice... As you may know New Zealand is inundated with none native introduced possums. Ie 70 million plus from last apparent count... We have Many in our area and a company is not just taking the fur but also the carcass for dog food. Current rate is about $10 for fur and carcass... Could easily get 30+ a night. As i am a night owl anyway. Just wandering what you guys thoughts were? I just dont like killing anything, however i am aware how destructive they are to a fauna and native wildlife... What are your thoughts?
