Sounds like the yellow nozzle is blocked, the best way to clean a print cartridge is to throw it in the bin and replace it.

Nope

The best way involves a small aubergine....

Oh [LIFTED].
The sewer main appears to be backed up. Had someone out to rod the drains, he ran out of rod with no luck at clearing the blockage, and now we're wondering if the tree that came down a few days ago, further up the road, has knackered the main. :roll:
T-eerrrrific.

Usually does if you just click the "retry" wheel, but it depends on the server. It won't work on a free download from Rapidshare for example, but they don't allow download managers so...

Cheers, you've probably saved me a fair bit of time there :)

How long before he is in court? FIFA is so corrupt I am surprised that a rival organisation has not been set up to replace it.

The -c flag for wget will continue partially downloaded files. But you probably don't use wget very often...

According to Blatter there is 'no crisis' just 'some difficulties' that will be sorted out by the FIFA family.

The only light I see is that Swiss MPs are currently discussing whether to kick FIFA out of Switzerland if they don't sort themselves out.

If FIFA were a middle eastern country we'd have invaded and overthrown Blatter by now

My diary says Bank Holiday (England) and yet the banks up here in sunny Scotland are closed today. Couple that with our Royal Air Force, which I always considered to be a United Kingdom-wide organisation, having the day off and I'm seriously questioning my regional roots :roll:

Why can't we have a UK Bank Holiday and then we'll all know where we stand?????

It would be good if they all applied equally nationwide and none were taken away.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

Why are most clothes made for skinny weedy runts?

What has happened to the male population? Having a torso bigger than a grape and thighs bigger than a stick means it's sometimes impossible to find something that fits.

Weedy tw@ clothes hoggers. :evil:
