    Alexa

    Yes you can have them at different locations. This is how I know... I gave my parents an Amazon Fire Stick a few years ago to watch TV with my Prime account. I later added a couple of Alexa units at my home and decided to test the Intercom feature by talking to my wife upstairs and jokingly...

    Need IT help in North & West Yorkshire?

    Well it wasn't really intended as advertising I was just providing my credentials and offering a bit of advice in exchange for some shooting, I'm going to be making a total loss on anything I help out with for a start. I have had similar posts in the wanted section for years and it's been...

    Was a proper comment too much effort or have you nothing better to do on a Tuesday night?

    Hi Elliot, I used to work at Bowcliffe Hall in Bramham myself and I also go to Hazel Bank regularly. I do sometimes need a hand so will keep you in mind. Send me a text on 07702333323 so I've got your number. Can't promise anything as I often go out at short notice between jobs but you never...

    Vermin & Pigeon Shooting - North Yorkshire

    I've been getting some good bags of pigeon feeding on OSR the last few weeks since it's come cold, including 120 on Monday. They are really tucking in on some fields and I'm seeing some serious crop damage while I'm driving about on business. I usually get out shooting a couple of times a week...

    Land for Gundog Training Club - North Yorkshire

    I help run Harrogate Gundogs Club and we are always looking out for land to train on. Ideally we need a mix of ground, including a large grass field we can do basic training on but also some woodland and/or moorland where we can train their hunting and searching skills (on dummies not game) and...

    Vermin & Pigeon Shooting - North Yorkshire

    40 Rooks and crows shot on emerging spring barley this week for a farm near Dishforth. There were 80+ on the field early in the week but that's made a good dent in their numbers. Also crows and squirrels removed from a game shoot on Forestry Commission land near Harrogate. Anyone got problems...

    Vermin & Pigeon Shooting - North Yorkshire

    We shot 100 pigeons in two hours on a farm in York today. Would have been a 200 bird day but the farmer was still rolling the field when we arrived and we couldn't get on until 4.30pm. A job well done if I do say so myself! Thanks Gareth. Thanks for the call Richard, I'll see you soon.

    Here's how you can block nuisance calls on BT

    Most do yes. All the major call centres follow the rules. If you're not on the TPS list you are inviting everyone to cold call you so why would you not want to when it takes all of 30 seconds to register? Some people are just stubborn and refuse to take any advice and then moan about it...

    xp and vista stopping updates .

    Well I don't know ANYONE in the IT industry who would suggest that and I've been doing it over 25 years. There are zero benefits to turning updates off and a lot of reasons why you should be installing them regularly. Admittedly, if you're on a very old version of Windows that's "end of life"...
