Morning all Huge event happening in this part of Cornwall today  The new shopping centre is opening in St. Austell  It's only taken about 10 years to complete  However, only 5 of the new shops are occupied & only one is new to St. Austell - Wilkinsons. Out of the other 4, one of them isn't a shop but a branch of Halifax. So it's really exciting - not! |

I don't think it's going to be very nice, Tim, but tomorrow's going to be even worse, they say. So spend, spend, spend today, tomorrow take the hindmost.

Evening all:)
Its been a lovely day here Scylla.
Its hasnt been sunny and warm but its kept dry and quite pleasant.
Me and the carer got into the town I wanted to go to and first job was go and have a cuppa.
We sat outside and it was enjoyable.
After our cuppa we went shopping round one or two shops and got 1 or two tokens by which time it was nearly noon so we went back to the cafe and I had me bacon and egg bap and anuver cuppa and me carer had a coffee.
We went to more shops and had a good look round and bought some more tokens and a small pressy for one of my bros which I was pleased about
We then moved onto the open air market and I bought some wall flower plants (a large bunch for £1:))
We went back to the cafe round 3pm and I had a cuppa tea and my carer had a latte.
I rang one of my bros to see if he was in town and he was so he came round to the cafe and had a coffee and a good chat with us. He asked where Id got the wall flowers so when we'd finished out cuppas I showed him.
Carer and I went to a shop that sells jelly babies.
For a 1.5kg bag it was £2.99 so I got 2 cos I love jelly babies.
When we went to the till I saw a notice that said there was a discount for members of womens institute or stall holders.
I said to the bloke on the till (the owner) that I was a member of the WI.
He had a laugh but he knocked 50p off which was very kind of him:)
We then made our way home naquered.
Lil bud had arrived home a couple of mins before us.

And the weather has been totally beautiful here - really sunny and clear. I leapt up this morning (like a true ebayer) and thought "fantastic - I can take some photos" - and ran for a pile of books and the camera Sad git that I am - but the light has been terrible all week - even with the light box.  |

Morning Tim - I told you it wasn't going to be nice today  Morning all I've been up for hours installing Windows 7 on my best laptop (thinking I might make it into a TV in time for the World Cup, as my real TV can be a bit fuzzy)... anyway, I'm completely devastated, it's the end of the world, because I can't change the keyboard so that the Shift key releases Caps Lock. I'm finding that the Control Panel's user-friendliness deteriorates with each new version of Windows  scylla |

Morning from a very wet & windy Cornwall.
Scylla, I wonder if you would get any help with that problem on the Techie board?
