They let me down badly yesterday by running out of my staple drug of choice, cocoa. It's a close thing, but with eking it out I think I can make it through to the next delivery.

CShorty Some/many of us will not have MS Publisher so cannot see your card. It looks as if it may have contained a TIFF image. If so, can you post just the image file (.tif or whatever) without wrapping it up in a Publisher page?

I always walk through it. I don't really think I'd feel any safer walking round the road bit. And I've also used the park at night for sky-watching during meteor seasons. Would locking it actually have any beneficial effect? Leaving it open doesn't force anyone to walk through it. Those who want to get in if it's locked will do so anyway.

If you're using the Wandsworth Road route, OTOH, don't rely on the NatRail site. It allows too much leeway to change trains at Peckham Rye, when the train in fact leaves from the adjoining platform. You can get the 14 or 44 from ED and be on the 20 or 50 to Wandsworth Road (via Denmark Hill, as above) if the trains are on schedule. Similarly for the return journey; though then there's usually just one minute for the change if both trains are on time.

The first scene of Truffaut's La nuit am?ricaine (Day for Night), celebrating the communal art(ifice) of film-making. The scene also gets my nomination for one of the best legitimate uses of music in film.

The council presumably have front door keys?

I use my own version of Joule's apparatus http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_equivalent_of_heat using high gearing and a large crank. It's good aerobic exercise and very green.

I suppose you could arrange a fresh rating. These technical assessments do tend to be expensive though.

I'm afraid I can't accept anything that might be regarded as an inducement. I can however say that I've carefully checked the list of G-rated old boilers (those deemed the most extremely decrepit and wasteful) and am pleased to confirm that dulwichmum's name is not currently in that list.

According to a document I've downloaded from OFGEM, "we have determined the average remaining lifetime of G-rated boilers to be 6 years. While it is possible some of these boilers will operate for longer than this, some will operate for a shorter time." It may seem tough, but it's all in the interests of efficiency: a big jump from 65% to 88%.

That's no excuse. With a PE crossword, you should automatically be tuning your mind in to sex/toilet/scurrilousness associations. Do you get your PE by mail, btw?

The DIR command requires use of a /A flag to list hidden files. Type HELP DIR for more details. The Windows search also requires specification that hidden files/folders are also to be searched. It's set in the More Advanced options (in XP, at least). I'd recommend using the Windows search program, using a minimal filename specification -- just a few adjoining letters of the expected filename, and not assuming any particular extension; eg searching for pref will find adobepref9.psp. And make sure your search path isn't unduly restricted. If that fails, Hal's suggestion is good. My bet would be on somewhere within the Documents and Settings hierarchy as the likely home for the file, quite probably under a folder called something like Adobe. jaybee82, I'm not convinced that the Windows search options mirror the Explorer folder display ones.

Reggie, have you actually read the Stephenson submission http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm200910/cmselect/cmcumeds/memo/press/ucm14302.htm that's referred to?

I'm still mystified by this use of pop-up. I don't know if I'm the only one, but I'm hoping for some illumination from Newsnight on BBC2 tonight. Their e-mail flyer for today has: "On tonight's show - how much would you pay for a postcard of Jeremy Paxman or Kirsty Wark? That's what Steve Smith is attempting to find out on his pop up stall in Carnaby Street. He's reporting on the whole pop up phenomenon - from shops to restaurants to Nissan cars."

Thanks VikkiM.
