Hi All,
I have just found a bug which was the cause of some annoyance to all who used the system  . Proposed a three possible solutions, the easy, the cheap & the risky. Strangely the easy was picked as the best solution  . I did not have to do much beyond prove the issue (I kinda wanted to roll up my sleeves and do some proper electronics rather than code)now for a ![Java | [Coffee]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/coffee.gif) and a smug feeling!

Not only working, but making the difference!!! Well done!!!
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

Good... it is a nice feeling to find an issue and propose an accepted solution.

Does that mean you did a hard coded bodge and will now have to find the time to fix it properly later anyway

Nope, Electronic hardware issue, suggest a better power supply (showed the model I used previously, bit dearer but hey what £5.00 when they rent out the gear at £xxxxx.xx a day)

King of Hearts is the only King that does not have a mustache.
Subject changed for the sake of purists.

The wiki site itself states this - "The king of hearts is the only one of the kings without a mustache".
So I guess you are wrong for a change.
|
|
|
|
|
So it is true because the wiki claims it?

And also "Most standard English playing cards used today derived from the original French models produced in the mid-16th century. For the purpose of mass production, the earliest cards were printed using woodblocks. Disfiguring occurred over the centuries as unskilled block makers distorted the original designs, resulting in hands, symbols of office and other attributes losing their meaning. Among the many distortions that took effect, the King of Hearts not only lost his moustache, but the axe he was originally holding became a sword."

It's bad form to try and usurp someone else's regular slot (Thought of the Day belongs to OG).
|
|
|
|
|
Agreed. But it did not make sense posting 'alternate thought of the day' before the thought of the day was posted.
|
|
|
|
|
And it still does not. Find something different.
|
|
|
|
|
Sorry can't help you anymore.
OG can find something else (subject) for today if he wants to.

Don't agree with that. CP is not some boys club where people have copyrights on certain phrases.

Sure, but that's only because you're incapable of having an original thought, any day.

The only anagram I can find is DEAN DOWLING - and Google says he's a character in a soap opera I've never heard of called "Fair City" and described by IMDB in the main review as "one star, Bucket of Cr@p" so I doubt it's that...

Fair City is a soap about Dublin that was huge when I was a teenager. It's massively depressing, poorly acted, and should be filed under "Plague, avoid like the". Oh, and it possesses possibly the most annoying theme tune ever. My Mum loved it, I think she still watches it.

My mother used to watch the original "Crossroads", so I know how you feel...
