  1. See previous answer. There is a SIM Tools app which one I press it says "install SIM Card"
  2. Then why does it say "No SIM Card" when I switch it on?
  3. I bought the tablet because it was cheap - now I know why. I DID find one of those little hole thingies where you use the magic doofah metal prod - but inserting that - nothing. Feeling along the edge I can't find any sort of slot that would suggest where to put the SIM card(s). I googled it of course and there almost zilch info - watched a couple of videos I found - no help whatsoever. Any body got any ideas?
  4. If he does jail time (one can only hope) will his ex-presidential protection follow him in? They'll look silly in the showers in their suits!
  5. It was sixteen (UK) pounds an ounce back in 1973. Mostly hash (Morrocan) but the occasional Afghani Black and once in a while a Thai Stick. Fifty years ago now. And they say cannabis is bad for your memory! It was sixteen pounds an ounce...oops sorry forgot I just said that.
  6. I told Barclays I was moving to mainland Europe more than twenty years ago - and the account is still open. hey DID close my Barclaycard accounts (when I stupidly paid off the balance) but so far no problem. I briefly moved to Singapore for a year and think I may have have told them but I don't think that is the point - Asia or Europe it shouldn't make a difference - either way it is non-UK. The account is active monthly which may have something to do with it. For a couple of months it was inactive and they tried to close it down but I had a hissy fit and they re-opened it again. A friend of mine kept his UK postal re-direct open for YEARS (even though it is only supposed to be for twelve months). BUT if you try and open a UK bank account without some proof of residence in th UK you will get NOWHERE. They don't that - period. (In My Humble Opinion).
  7. A common mistake: Sweden = Switzerland. Well they both start with "SW" have lots of snow and were (until recently) neutral. Obviously same country.
  8. Some of my best friends are inanimate plastic objects.
  9. When will people stop posting articles with a title that delivers NO CLUE as to what is being asked?
  10. Maybe slightly off-topic but I see many posts stating "my visa is on my old passport" many moons ago I was in Saudi and every time I left the coutntry they would take nearly two pages for the bleedion' stamps. I soon filled my passport (with the work permit on it) so the British Embassy gave me a new one but attached to the old one to it "oifficially" (lots of ribbon and stuff) - do they not still do that?
  11. he WAS actually and doing a strange sort of dancing "twitch" in his seat overreacting to the pain he was going through being sat next to someone without a mask. I thought he was having convulsions
  12. Getting a higher reading in hospital is called the "White coat effect" - all them medic people cause you stress and so higher blood pressiure. If mine is 140/85 - ish range I reckon no problem (and no doctor has advised me otherwise). I DO exercise, not a great deal, but enough (min 2-3 hours a week more when I have time).
  13. And as usual this thread has degenerated into people slagging off other peoples choices.
  14. I think they have to zero above the ground to qualify as a landing. It;'s called a guess for the purpose of the post. Next time I'll enable my GPS.
  15. Pobably Bubonic Plague so nothing serious ???? . As someone mentioned earlier, you really shouldn't post this sort of stuff on April 1st. And yes I am qualified medical practioner (in my own mind at least) but nobody else seems to recognize the fact.
  16. That's not true. Jeff Goldblum infected an entire alien spaceship with his Mac. But he couldn't get it to talk to his Windows laptop - technologies too strange and incompatible.
  17. But, unbelievably, I was sat in the middle of three seats and have a (slight) cough. The bloke next to me asked if I would mind if I wear a mask and said yes I would(mind), I tested myself for Covid (recentl and yes it was negative) , this is a just bit of catarrh from my hay fever/asthma and not infectious. I said I would wear a mask when I get outside but see no point in wearing one inside the (hopefully filtered) plane. He got the hump and moved seats giving me more room. Must remember to do that again. ???? And of course greeted with 400-500+ (Aqicn) SMOG which is "merely" down to the two hundreds this afternoon. Wore a mask whem cycling, first ever I've done this, I am often here February/March but never felt the need before.
  18. Why aren't you at school? Playing "hookey" again????? It was called "twagging" in the part of Yorkshire I went to school in.
  19. Let's stamp out this evil weed and meanwhile half the drivers are drunk and those aren't are on yaba. MUCH safer! ????
  20. There is a school of thought that says THC and that sort of stuff can reduce the effectivemess of the local anesthetic. But then you'll probably be so out of it you won't notice. But on a more serious note if you need to get youself knocked out (FULL anesthestia) the dentist is not qualifed to do that (although that never stopped them when I was a kid and was regularly knocked out by the (unqualified) dentist) so they will have to get a an anesthesiologist I would imagine. I have plenty of work done at CM Ram (with local anesthetic) - my advice (for your friend)n- go ONCE get all your teeth pulled out and then get some plastic choppers for the rest of your life. Apparently this was quite common before free dentistry "It may sound gruesome but as late as the 1940's, people were having all their teeth pulled out as a birthday or wedding present. In the days before the NHS, no teeth = no expensive dental bills." https://www.bbc.co.uk/scotland/history/scotlandonfilm/forum/health/thread10.shtml#:~:text=It may sound gruesome but,teeth %3D no expensive dental bills. Problem solved.
