How many stacks of wood have we gone through since that first one???
Now I live in a stack of wood.
(Sorry Barrie)
How many of you moaning about Microsoft have an Android phone, use Google products including Maps and Chrome or own and Alexa? Facebook? USe any of those and you are being spied on far more than by Microsoft.
The last few W10 updates can be delayed, and you could always set it to do it out of hours. There is generally a good reason for the update. I'd rather keep the OS on my phone up to date than the firmware on my camera.

On a completely different note I have just been watching an F35 flying circuits directly over my house. No no photos. I can't do planes.
Very different sound to the F16s we normally get.

I'm hoping to see some action on the RAF range when I'm down at Donna Nook for the seals. Doubt it will be F35's though.

We only have one F35 at the mo.
The F16s regularly go over, and next month we have the added fun of them dropping 500lb bombs 30km from us. Got to feel sorry for the seals there.

The seals keep coming back, so I don't think all the commotion must bother them.

OK, no-one "took the bait" and started a new thread about Windows 10, and so I have just done that (with a link to the previous page of this one to save repeating stuff).
The new thread is here - Please throw your toys out of the Windows 10 pram there!

Perhaps SRS could snap it up and rebrand them.

Not a good idea methinks, unless you want SRS to go down the drain too.

Totally agree (unfortunately!)

PS: @Chris (SRS) - maybe offer 50p + and no obligation to take on existing debts?
("total joke" - Chris, please don't take that seriously!
