  • Thomas Cook Overseas Rep ID card?

    I know a person who is claiming to work for Thomas Cook and making all kind of offers to me and others about been able to get us cheap holidays and travel. Although when confronted they come up with excuses and delay answering questions. One of the things is their ID Card. For a long time they couldn't find it and when they finally sent a picture (via mobile) it was very blurry and looked fake.

    My question is does anyone know what the real card looks like? For an Overseas Representative. Basic details are all I need. What colour is it what details does it contain? Name? Date of Birth etc? And what size is it?

    Thanks for any help you can give.

  • Acer laptop doesn't wake up when i lift the lid?

    I have recently got an Acer Aspire 5755G and when I lift up the lid the laptop doesn't resume from standby. Is this normal or not? I have to press a key or the power button to get it to resume windows. Its rather annoying to be honest and the first laptop I have ever encountered that doesn't wake from standby by lifting the lid.

    Can someone tell me if this is normal or a fault with the laptop/settings?

  • Streaming randomly drops out?

    When streaming movies from our NAS GoFlex Home to our Samsung BD-HDD player the video file stops playing randomly and wont restart. We were watching a movie and after about 30 minutes it just stopped and when we tried to resume it wouldn't let us. It just started again from the beginning.

    The NAS drive is new although the router is fairly old. Its a Linksys WRT54GL. I have wondered if the slower transfer speed of Wireless G might be the problem.

    Any suggestions on what might be up? Thanks in advance for any help.

  • Wordpress web address's not working?

    I am having problems with Wordpress breaking my web addresses (url's) every time i press update.

    Here is the page with the problem: http://kadampafestivals.org/scandinavia/?page_id=5... Try clicking any of the URL's and you will end up on the main page.

    Why is it that it automatically adds "http://kadampafestivals.org/scandinavia/wp-admin/%... to the start of all the url's. In the html they are quite normal:

    <a href="www.mediteraistockholm.se">www.mediteraistockholm.se</a>

    Please let me know how I can fix this. Plugin's are not an option as the wordpress is setup in such a way that they can’t be installed. It’s not my doing, I am just in charge of upgrading it for 2012.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Fish dying from time to time?

    My fish are dropping dead from time to time. We have a tropical tank with about 10 fish in at the moment and about once a month a fish dies. There is no pattern to it or anything they are often different species. And not obviously the weakest fish for example. As the latest victim was the only male of a species. There is not obviously anything wrong with the tank.

    When living with my parents and we had gold fish and when they died it tended to be a mass extinction were all of them died within a week or so. Not just 1 a month.

    Any ideas as to what maybe causing it? As far as we know they are getting enough food and the water is clean.
