Re: [Ql-Users] Happy New Year
Hello Adrian, I am sorry to say that what YOU write about Royal mail is true for Deutsche Post too. They save on everything you can imagine: they took thousands of postboxes away, so that millions of customers have to go/drive longer routes to put their letters into boxes (and then they tell us something about green post). Last summer, they did not deliver post on Mondays (as an attempt to save, and see how the people reacted). Large letters and parcels without even a single delivery attempt happened here too several times. There was too much to carry, was the apology after my complaint. Well, if they reduce the number of postman every other month, there IS probably too much at some stage. I call this FRAUD, as I pay for the delivery. And - I have to drive through half the city to pick up the goods as they removed this facility from the local post office. When I catched a postman putting the card in (which said I was not at home) and NOT having the item with him, I reported this to the local TV and press and got the item delivered manually... and that has not happened to me anymore. And you think the UK postal services are bad... I guess that is fact more or less everywhere where the customer does not count anymore... Cheers Jochen Adrian D. Ives wrote: Jochen, Still no sign of QL Today here in Manchester, but I have to say that, for me, the Royal Mail no longer serves any useful purpose. After all, if you have a postal service that doesn't deliver the post, that leaves red cards without even trying to deliver the parcels that they never took out on the van in the first place, then they should simply cease to exist. I'm afraid that the Royal Mail is now the very epitome of what the United Kingdom has become over these last fifteen years: a bureaucratic nanny state where the only thing that matters is making up new rules and finding new ways of not providing a service to the customer. Anyway, new year rant over! Regards and a belated Happy New Year to all.

I am in a similar situation: Before I tried my luck with my own small movie-company, I worked as journalist. I closed my company 2008 and tried to work as journalist again, but it is nearly impossible to get a full-time-job as journalist these days. I write for some magazines as freelancer, but thids isn´t enough for living. So I decided to go for something different (I will work in a social-job with children). Currently I am doing a job-training and will hopefully work in autumn. So good luck, Rich and don´t loose your faith!

If anyone wants to translate the odd comment in Welsh there's a free if rather basic Welsh/English lexicon on my website. Or, alternatively, ask Norman Dunbar.

If anyone wants to translate the odd comment in Welsh there's a free if rather basic Welsh/English lexicon on my website. Or, alternatively, ask Norman Dunbar. IIRC he has a Welsh speaker sat opposite him at work. I fairly quickly built up a reasonable Norwegian word list by visiting Norwegian newspapers on the web and copying their text into the QL world and running the text through Qspell (with the option to add unrecognised words to a file). Every now and again I added the new word lists to the dictionary and rebuilt the dictionary for efficiency. Did it every night for a couple of weeks. Quick and easy using QPC2's copy and paste. Laborious keeping the dictionary clean, though. Per ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
[ql-users] Happy new year
A happy new year to everyone on this list. And a happy new year to my MinisQL. You'll remember a few weeks ago it was giving me big problems with fast flashing cursor and shorter than usual PAUSEs and Qubide problems. Today, I finally plucked up the courage to take it all apart, check and clean all contacts I could get at and try to reassemble it if I could! As usual when I take a computer apart, there were screws left over and so on which caused some head scratching as I tried to remember where everything went. Although I still don't know what caused the problems, it's now back to normal. It does seem to have been bad contacts somewhere, although goodness knows where because it wasn't done one step at a time. It seems that cleaning out 2006 did the trick :-) So, I hope yuo all have your QaLendar 2007 on your walls and looking forward to QooL 2007! -- Dilwyn Jones ___ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
