Google earth

[Suff]

FairNuff.

It's simple and read only (if you just look) and tells you what you need to know. Have a bash tomorrow.

Windows has loads of places which tells you what is going on. If you don't know where they are, then diagnosing issues is almost impossible..

Have another drink and forget it for tonight.

Ah, yes, that's a good idea, nuvver drink

brandy anyone?? Gert lush, ti's, this Portugueses brandy and only 7 euros a bottle.

Hmm, at the weekend Mrs S and I hammered 3 bottles of wine on Saturday night. She's been dieting and I had to help her to bed, the bathroom, the bed, the bathroom... You get the picture...

At least I had some excuse, I was exercising the bird strike (large pigeon), on my head at 90mph Friday afternoon on the way to the train. That wine certainly soothes the sore neck....

So, wioth my new up to date new hard drive and all new singing and dancing firewalls, I still can't get google earth.

Yes, I can download it, save it to file thingy, but can as heck get the blinkin' icon and I want to look at some houses and where they are.

Help, please again.

Gawd, I'm fick

Or if any of you fancy a holiday in Portugal..................

Or if any of you fancy a holiday in Portugal..................

That's me, but can I help? Who knows?

I do curries and things - and pizzas, vindaloos, Thai, Chinese.....

I do have some 'puter knowledge, which might help.

Probably better to wait until it's cooler WM - I know the heat is frying my brain at the moment

[Suff]

When you download Google Earth you still have to run the downloaded file and install it. ...

Did you do that bit?

Does the heat compare with making concrete in 36c and re tiring to the back patio to rest in 48c?

[tonicha]

Well, I thought I did, but you never know. I'll try again tomorrow -


And yes, we've done that too - working for some dafty Norwgians who have more money than sense.

Poor ole Grumps was on a roof, chatting to a peacock at one stage - I have the photos to prove it too

[tonicha]

And did it all again and again, I get error 1603.

Think I need to see Flavio, which now will be Monday

Numbers are good, gives us a chance to work out what is wrong.

Later though, I'm stuck standing on a TGV for 1hr 45 due to a fire on the lines at Vendome. It's a mess at Montparnasse so I just jumped on the first train heading my way.
