My friend and I are taking his camper van over from Wales to Ireland. Can;t believe our countries are neighbours and I've never been. We're aiming to spend 2 weeks there. I know I know.. Need much more time there really. 3 questions.

1. Any recommendations for places to wild camp? Rural and mainly coast?

2. What must we not miss seeing and experiencing? We need to plan a route.

3. We're going on Irish ferries from Anglesey to Dublin. My dog has to stay in the car. The french ferries don't let you go and check on your dog. Does anyone know if Irish ferries will let me?

Since the new Yahoo mail started I can't find select all for my inbox.

I have windows 7 on my computer. Office word starter 10 started causing problems so I loaded my Star Office Suite on. Tried to remove word and now I am stuck with an error message ( I think its 5033 ) when I try to open documents. Office word starter has changed to click to run and is in q drive. I'm not that computer savvy, I just want to be able to open documents in star office.

I paid for it 12 weeks ago and its been and still is a nightmare. My last car spectacularly failed it mot. So the guy that does my tyres said he'd find one for me. I could only afford 500 pounds. He got me a peugeot 306 diesel. Said he needed to do some work on it. I live out in the sticks and had to wait 5 weeks for the car. 1/2 a mile from his business and ( I'm not very car savvy ) the car sounded like its exhaust was coming off. Tried to drive back but it stopped with clouds of smoke coming out of the engine. He eventually came out and bump started it and I got home. He said the ignition key wasn't returning and that I had to do it manually. It didn't start the next morning. Called him, and this was the beginning of him not replying to texts and calls. I tried over the weekend to charge the battery and start it and no go. He didn't come to get it for another 2 weeks, during which time various friends tried to get it going. And he said he had to replace the starter motor. All this time he had only given me the reg documents and not the mot. He managed to start it finally and left me another car that had a dodgy axle. Another 5 weeks later and he tells me its ready. This is after a few false starts with me travelling the 40 mile round trip a few times on the basis that the car was ready and I was collecting it. He wasn't there, but somehow ( apparently ) he had lost part of the number plate. His side kick was there. I asked for the mot certificate as it was supposed to be mot'd that afternoon. The sidekick didnt have it. It was still supposed to be in mot but he'd promised he would get it done. I don't see how it could have passed. He said he'd changed the ignition barrel and the key still didnt return. I think he is lying And that he never changed it. Added to that the air bag light either flashes or wont go out, doors aren't opening properly and there was a pool of water in front of the drivers seat after it rained hard. I took the car on yet another round trip today for him to fit a tyre as he said there was an advisory on the mot about one tyre. He wasn't there. His sidekick was. I have a feeling its to do with the mot certificate as when I asked for it the other day he asked me what I needed it for as the tax isn't due till February. I have had to pay for the number plate he broke otherwise I would have been done. He and I signed the reg documents when I picked it up the first time but I havent sent my bit off yet. I want my money back. I have proof the cash was paid into his account. Where can I go from here? Its a nightmare

I took out a moblie phone contract with Tesco ( O2 ) . Moved to Wales and have no signal. The contract still has quite a while to run. So I'm thinking of keeping it going but getting Virgin pay as you go. I don't really want to have to get a new phone. Will I be able to use my tesco phone with a virgin sim?

I have called their 117117 number and it is all automated even though they say you can talk to someone on their site. Another number they supply is unobtainable. I need to ask some questions that aren't covered in their online email form

Bought car. Collected car. noticed rattling sound. engine died and smoke out of the bonnet. Ex owner hadn't told me the ignition key wasn't springing back. He bump started it. Got it home. wouldn't start next day. Charged battery all day. No start. Sounded like it wanted to. Ex owner had put 10 pounds of fuel in and me 6 so not a fuel problem. Any advice? In plain english please : )

I ran up a credit card bill of 4500 about or 5 years ago with Natwest Mastercard. I've moved around a lot and the ten pounds I agreed to pay comes out of my account every month. I think they are probably trying to trace me. I want to go for a debt relief order but don't know if I may be over the £15000 limit . I may be if they have been adding interest. Anyone know what happens in these cases?

I live in a bad signal area and can't make calls on the mobile. Need the numbers so i can call on the landline. But it only shows the names

I want to fly from the uk to the Gambia in February but the flight prices are sky high. £1000 plus. Anyone know of any much cheaper ones ?

my friends and I are going to France on April 12th for 2 weeks. We were going to stick to Normandy and Britanny but now that the weathers not looking so good we want to go further south. We want to incorporate a campsite in Normandy near a cider farm. We also don't want all singing all dancing campsites. Definitely near the sea, markets, good cheap eateries and campsites. Any tips?

I've read conflicting advice about it. She has seperation anxiety and would go crazy in a crate. Think she could manage just in the car with sedation. If I'd known this I would have gone via the tunnel.

My yahoo messenger is part of my yahoo mail. I don't want it there but can't see how to remove it. i also have a flashing message saying some russian sounding person wants to speak to me, When I click on it nothing happens. Can't delete him/her either.I also can't sign out of messenger. It just pops back on.

My friend and I want to spend a few days in Belgian and French Ardennes. We're incorporating Dinant into the route and the Champagnes region. Does anyone know of some nice routes and small campsites for a round trip?

I downloaded advanced system care and ran it - including registry cleaner. Now the resolution is staying at it's lowest and I can't do system restore.

I've looked on the internet and can't find any

My Astras head gasket is on the way out. Can use it for a little while. Can't afford to het it done yet so I'm thinking of trying steel seal. Anyone had a any luck with it?

I want to start planning a road trip from Calais in France to the Romantic Road in Germany then down to Venice. Can anyone suggest a good route taking in as much fantastic scenery as possible? I'll be sleeping in the car so any tips on rest areas and where to eat cheaply will be appreciated.
