Re: When ordering check your address!!

Re: When ordering check your address!!

I was wondering with some UK addresses, mostly London this happens, you end up with a address that says London 3 or 4 times, I guess people are being forced to put something in the box regardless so just stuff London in it. So it's like : 1 house street,london london,london london post code Other th...

Re: When ordering check your address!!

I seem to be the only person on earth who had a lesson in school on how to format a address and a letter, no one believes me it was a thing :lol: I noticed on USA packages over the years people were putting their phone numbers on the label, it caused all sorts of problems. The USPS has a tool for lo...

Re: a500 PSU caps

but I don't have the wire for the 520 😔 so unsure about video, but the lights work and the drive does the appropriate clicky seeking type noise... Very Happy For a test could you not use the mono composite video out instead? Just remembered the A520 does colour composite out too, might be a option ...

Re: Smonson's poorly-thought-out toaster oven reflow experiments

Re: Address field changes

I've had some right weird info appear on address from people not filling in forms properly, I think the problem is most people don't know where they live and it dont match Royal Mails records, especially regions where the borders where changed in 1952 and yet people still call it that 70 years later...
