Santander Closures

Which Theatre Critic?

Trying to find which theatre critic got so 'refreshed' at the interval that she went back into a different foyer, saw the second half of a different production, and thought it 'marvellous and...

Radio Radio

In spite of the huge number of TV channels available (and I don't have Sky or access to Netflix etc) I find myself listening more and more to the radio. There's something rather comforting about it,...

System Restore Chore

It seems about once a year I have to do a system restore on my laptop (I use F11), as when I put in my password I get a message saying something like "user profile failed the log on". The fixes I've...

Hotmail Change

Has the design of anyone else's Hotmail changed today? Just logged on, and it's undergone a fairly radical restyling. Not sure if I like it, but probably will just need time to get used to it - a bit...

Hp Deskjet 1514 Paper Jam

Does anybody please know how to get into the above printer? A sheet of A4 has 'disappeared', and there's no trace, and printer will not print. When my friend's HP Envy 4520 got jammed I was able to...

Re-Installing Printer

Having - I think - established that the reason the printer won't print from the just-downloaded OpenOffice (see my post on Saturday) is that it does not recognise OO, and I reckon the solution will be...

Where Was I? 11/11

Oh come on, Sean, you should have made the questions harder than that! Like maybe identifying one of the 'architectural elements'. I bet there are plenty of them in Prague....

Openoffice Printing

I've just helped my friend download OpenOffice, and it works beautifully. However, when you go to File then Print, although it recognises her printer (HP ENVY 4520) it just will not print. I've tried...

Where Was I? 4/11

A lot of enjoyable castle-hunting this morning - that revolt "caused at least twenty castles in England to be recorded as demolished". Blimey. Knew roughly where to look as the Scots were involved,...

Where Was I? 28/10

Not much to go on this week - wish the powers-that-be would give more space for a lengthier puzzle as of yore. No mention of Rod Stewart, who has a house near there that he's been trying to sell (or...

Where Was I? 21/10

Following my reservations last week about Sean Newsom taking over the setting of this puzzle, I have to say I thought this week's was well up to the standard of the 'shorter form' Fautley ones. In...

Where Was I? 14/10

Well, after over 20 years and 1,041 puzzles set, Chris Fautley has stopped setting Where Was I? No idea why, but judging by this week's short, uninteresting effort from Sean Newsom, he will be sorely...
