Well done Ian Mune!

Quote:Asked how it feels to be made a knight companion of the NZ Order of Merit in the 2024 New Year Honours list, Ian Mune bursts into a booming laugh.
ÔÇ£If itÔÇÖs used on formal occasions, thatÔÇÖll be fine - I just donÔÇÖt want my kids calling me Sir Dad,ÔÇØ he jokes.
At 82, the acting great has countless accolades to his name, from an OBE to multiple awards and Television Legend status, but he doesnÔÇÖt want to get ÔÇ£too carried away with the formalitiesÔÇØ.
ÔÇ£For theatre, IÔÇÖd say what I enjoyed most was doing the big Shakespeare parts -┬áKing Lear┬áand the others. And for movies,┬áCame a Hot Friday,┬áSleeping Dogs, and I did a lot of work on┬áGoodbye Pork Pie┬áon the script, but I wasnÔÇÖt there for the shoot."

In which David Seymour does his best to appear as the saviour of school lunches, despite having previously expressed his distaste for them...
Suddenly they're just fine - but there will be changes. Eventually no hot lunches, but  sandwiches instead.

Hmm, reeks of the old 'Chuck the peasants a crust" attitude.

Patterson pleaded not guilty to all eight of her charges on Tuesday, including three counts of murder and five counts of attempted murder.

Most of us remember him from Boys from the blackstuff, (Yosser Hughes) Lord of the rings etc. etc.

while windows 10 has apparently risen slightly.
Appears this is due to ads according to this video.

I have a Brother Printer MFC-L27130DW. I want to scan photos to my PC and am having some difficulty setting it up. There is information on Google

but it is confusing. I am sure I have done it in the past via Wi-Fi, but my old brain can't remember how I did it. Can someone point me in the right

direction please?

I have decided to ditch Xtramail and have installed Gmail account in my Outlook 2019. It's working OK as it should.

I'll delete my Spark's Xtramail account  in the next few days.

Questions:

1.  After deleting the the my Xtramail account, of course, my Outlook 2019 will not be able to receive /send any mail, and will have to say bye, bye to xtramail. 
2.  All my Outlook 2019's Inbox /Sent and all folders/ sub-folders, etc., contents should still stay where they are, right?
3.  And, I should still be able to access all old mails from Outlook 2019.
4.  As mentioned above, I have setup my gmail account in Outlook 2019 and it is working OK and continues to work, right.
5.  Is there anything I should do before deleting my Xtramail account?

Cheers.

A woman waiting for her passport which had been delayed once due to photo being rejected, & has so far been waiting 7 weeks, has been told that if she pays an extra $206 she can have her passport sooner...


It all seems damned unfair - as well as a way to make money from those in sometimes difficult situations.
