I hate the District line, ended up in Parson's Green the other morning and was late for work.

It switches itself off... flashing red light and three beeps. Any ideas? Typing this on the mobile btw, hence lack of words

When mine (60Gb) was locking up during games, I switched it off, kept the slot open with an old credit card and blasted some air into it - I've seen suggestions that you should use a hairdryer and relevant attachment for 2 minutes, presumably on a low setting!

Not his job.  He way supposed to be head of IT, but spent more time on the IT than looking after his people and looking after the problems.

A company any of us may have used or may use HK? I guess if we currently use them we'd have had an email though.

I guess. It's a company called Hannants. They've been established for donkey's selling plastic model kits and allied bits and bobs.

Well they are right next to the Hendon Aerodrome if you need stuff urgently. Easy parking as well. The fact that they have shut the site down temporarily and deleted all card details to stop further problems is a good sign. They actually are so good that they attract people from around the world, even a Hollywood director bought a pile of stuff over the summer when he was in there.

That's one shop. Their main warehouse and business is in Norfolk. Anyway, there's nothing urgent I need. Just an occasional indulgence, and as you say they've got on the problem pretty quickly.
