    Its the only time it happens... What could it be?

  • How do i catch my ghost on camera?

    it opened all the kitchen cabinets a few months back and when i left a note pad with the question"what do you want" it ripped all the pages out and scribbled the words "her the angel"refering to my partner i think.i was only out of the room for 30 seconds,the bathroom cabinet is constantly opened at an angle even when its been closed,and i have witnessed a long black tail like thing wrapped around the door handle but when ive gone closer to get a better look it shot off around the door out of view.it has also been in to see my partner while she has been sitting on the toilet,she said it was like a pure black legless ferret type creature thet quivers and looks slightly transparant,we are quite open minded so i told her next time dont be scared and see if you can get a better look,she did and when she saw it in the bathroom again she called it and put her hand out to it and it came closer,she shouted me to come and see it and she said it shot off quickly when it heard me coming,ive tried setting up cameras but it seems to know and never comes out or does anything,but as soon as the camera is off it messes with things again.any ideas.

  • am i getting screwed over?

    i have had an account with my catalogue for some time and have an available to spend of over£3000 as ive been a good customer.

    i ordered a new washing machine after the one i had off them only lasted 2 years.

    i was fully intended of paying in large installments as i always do but received a phone call from them asking if i wanted the item it on buy now pay next year.

    as its coming up to christmas and my account was already payed up fully to that point i decided to take there offer.

    2 months passed and i received my statement saying my account was in arrears and i had been charged interest and insufficient payment charges.

    i contacted them and they said they had no records of the buy now pay next year.

    i would not have minded so much but it was they who had contacted me and offered the bnpy.

    on top of that they had not sent me a statement for 2 months(strange)

    after a long heated argument they decided to remove the interest and charges and i was happy.

    i topped my account up by £70 (this will easily cover my account for this and next payment due)

    but have now received another letter with even more interest and insufficient funds added.

    where do i stand? can i just shut this account down and return the goods outstanding?

    has anyone else had the same problems?

  • is there really any point playing fifa online.?

    my skill level has gone to level 19 on fifa 10 and every pass is useless every shot hits the post every defender is thick as ****.

    it is not putting me up against harder players online its just making my team completely useless.

    why does the game handicap you just for being good.

    and please dont mention getting fifa 11 because i did and traded it in after 2 days because of the slim freeze glitch.

  • whos bike do i use when taking test?

    im thinking of taking my motorcycle test in the new year.

    ive drove bikes all my life (not always legally tut tut tut but never stolen)

    but i want to do it properly and take my test.

    i know that i can pass my cbt with provisional and drive up to a 125cc for 2 years but can i take my full direct access on this bike or will i need a bigger bike if i need a bigger bike do the test centre have one you can use?

    it would be virtually impossible for me to get a bigger bike insured and delivered to the test centre

    so is this just a way of making you have to take a course and use there bike (extra cost)

    i am a very good safe motorcyclist and always pass my mock theory with 100%

    but like most people i am on a budget.

    thanks for any answers in advance and please no lecturing (i know)

  • i work hard all week and when i get home i do the cooking and then just want to veg out becuase im tired.?

    my partner of 14 years keeps the house in order while im at work and does a great job of looking after our 5 year old daughter.

    most of the time im really happy but lately im getting sick and tired at being moaned at.

    im not allowed out unless ive given her full details of where im going and who with (and then she will still make an excuse of why i cant go)

    she will ask me if i want to go somewhere with her tomorrow(say shopping) and ill say no im ok ill stay at home and she will say ok.....but the next day she will be moaning about why im not going and kick up a fuss.

    when it comes to the weekends when im not so tired i will go places with her and i do enjoy it but as soon as i say i want to go somewhere it all kicks off!

    i like to play football for a few hours on the weekend with her brother to get some exercise and chill out but every time she has to make a big deal out of it all and put me on a guilt trip.

    i spend as much time with my daughter as i can playing and chatting about school but even she has started stamping her feet and issuing orders just like her mother.

    is there anything wrong with wanting a little time too yourself without all the aggro.

    ive never cheated and don't think i would but im getting too the point where im losing my feelings for my girlfriend.im 32 shes 30

  • harmony one remote seems to be doing nothing for about 8 seconds before changing activities?

    when you choose an activity such as watch tv or watch projector or play media player the remote seems to hang for about 8 seconds doing nothing then it starts doing as it should perfectly well.

    ive watched the remote after pressing the activity i want and the little icon is flashing as though its sending out an ir signal for 8 seconds then sends out the normal signal.

    how can i stop it taking so long at the beginning and any idea what its doing ?

  • fifa 10 online is so ****!?

    has anyone else noticed that if the ea server does not want you to win you will not win?

    you can tell from the kick off that all your team are playing as though they have had day release from a retard centre. your players are no where that they should be and every shot is sky rocketed or the Striker stands there like a complete **** even though you have pressed shoot until your fingers bleed.

    don't get me wrong the odd 1 in 10 games you will play a Good player and you will battle it out.

    but most the time your playing people who are completely crap and your destroying them with shot after shot and not one will go in then they will have 1 break with 1 Striker and all of your defenders will be either nowhere to be seen or jitter and run backwards and your goal keeper will turn into john merrick with constipation and flap his arms around with no attempt at a save and you lose 1 - 0 !!!!!!!!

    you will get some people say " well it all adds up to a exciting game and these little glitches make it more realistic".................NO NO NO NO NO .I WANT TO WIN A GAME BECAUSE I PLAYED BETTER OR LOSE A GAME BECAUSE I PLAYED **** NOT BECAUSE THE GAME CHOSE WHO SHOULD WIN OR NOT........you would not have people saying it adds to the realism on formula 1 racing if your winning and all of a sudden your driving a robbin reliant on the last lap.

    sorry for the rant anyone else getting pissed of with fifa 10.

    p.s what the hell is the ref doing pulling me back for a free kick in my own half when i just scored a goal and disallows it

  • women i know gets £4000 backdated benefits.?

    she has 4 kids and has never worked a day in her life she does not look after the kids properly and has had social services on her back about the state of her house.

    the benefits messed her money around for 1 week and when they sorted it out the realised she was owed £4000 in backdated income support!

    this was money that she was not even missing becuase she was recieving tax credits and already on nearly £300 a week due to her getting care allowance as well for her eldest that is slightly autistic.

    i work my **** off and have looked around at all the things ive had to save up to buy and have worked it out that she could buy everything i have now with the £4000

    and its taken me years.

    it makes me feel sick how would you feel?

    she is my sister inlaw so i know becuase ive seen her bank statements and letters that she showed me.

  • ps3 video output settings?

    can you have different video output settings for different users on ps3

    user 1 uses hdmi

    user 2 uses component.

    i use a harmony one remote that can change between users automatic and this would be easyier than holding the power button for 5 seconds to get the defualt video output screen.
