I tend to delete everything and factory set if I can, then Mr WD takes a hammer to it to make doubly sure No one can get any info off of it. We don't have anywhere really to get rid of things like that so we just make sure everything is securely wrapped up then put it in the bin.

Thanks.
I have an old laptop that needs binning.
Is "factory resetting" easy ?
I can google it but better to ask someone who has actually done it.

Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.

Just go to your settings. Under security maybe and you should find factory reset. It might not be in the exact place as some devices are different, but you should be able to find it in that area.

Or you can try the maintonance area in the settings.

Barnet,
Good morning all, and congratulations to Dave and Mrs Dave.
A sunny start to the day here.
Later on MrsP and myself are off to the Garrick Theatre in Covent Garden to see the production of The Drifters Girl. It's about the first manager of the Drifters who was a girl.
MrsP likes the music and she got the tickets cheap through a website that sells tickets off to fill the seats midweek.
The other highlights of the day are the fortnightly Sainsbugs delivery, the cost is going up, and the amount gets smaller :sad:
Have fun everyone.

DAVE 7 AND MRSD HAVE BEEN MARRIED 54 YEARS TODAY.
Not sure how I made it as she has tried poisoning me, battering me, suffocating me etc but I have been a brave boy:laugh:

Happy anniversary 👍🍺🍾🥂

Good morning folks,
Daughter and grandson arrived last night, we had a catch up, I made a Macaroni cheese dish that went down well. We watched England v Sweden, a great game.
Looking forward to getting out on the Brommies, I knew it made perfect sense to have five of them 😉
Have a peaceful day folks 😎☕️👍

Ah ha! So I could do an N+1 in anticipation of small person needing to borrow a bike from granddad in 12-13 years.

Best to be prepared. Cheers. 👍

Morning. Happy Anniversary to Mr and Mrs Dave.

A chilly start here. Called into the vet on my way home as my cat Molly hasn't eaten for 48 hours now and I'm worried sick. Taking her in at 10.15. I can imagine the expense I'm going to have. I don't mind if it's a good outcome. It's £46 just to walk through the door now and if there's test or x-rays I can only imagine it will be at least a couple of hundred.

Good glorious morning in Lancashire to you all. Bright, sunny, fresh. That's more like it.

I have a committee meeting at 9.30, some admin to do and will clean my onions for storage, pick and freeze runner and French beans.

I've been half watching England but last night gave the game my full attention. Fantastic. I love watching Rovers but these women are a breath of fresh air. The third goal was simply outrageous, up there with some of the very, very best for a cheeky strike. Sofa seat booked for Sunday.

Time for izzy wizzy let's get busy. I need to read committee minutes.

:hello:
