When I was working in Fishguard I had a tourist come up asking "where is Abergwaun?" (Abergwaun Is Fishguard in welsh).
I looked at him for a few seconds and just said "you're in Fishguard!"
He looked at me as if I was an idot and then said "no, Abergwaun - not Fishguard!"
I replied " Abergwaun is Fishguard!"
"Nope it's not - complete different place you idot" I pulled out my phone and shown him a picture of the road sign "Fishguard - Abergwuan" never seen somone look so small - everyone was looking in the shop.

I had a similiar experience to you CC, on the Dean Forest Railway, where I work. We had a diesel multiple train running, and it was advertised on the leaflet as this. When we got into to Lydney, a couple came on and the woman said "This is a steam railway, isn't it supposed to be steam?" and I said "No, today we are running diesel". She then said "But you are supposed to be running steam, look, it says 'Steam Railway' on your leaflet" to which I replied "Yes, but sometimes we run a diesel day, look here on the leaflet" and I showed them the calender with the little sign that says diesel day on the day we were running. Then she said "Oh well. I'll have to complain, I wanted steam". I was like

it says right in front of you 'Diesel Day'??

Wow, great renders, I couldn't tell that was fake until I really looked at it...looks a bit like the MI6 building in London

I don't mind new look buildings too much, as long as it isn't pink and has fluffy bobbles on it I'm usually fine with it!

Hey guys...

a few hours ago I realised that I have 2 problems with my screen...

when i try to mark archives the blue colour of the "marking square" is missing and
when I move an opened window I see a black and white box...

Take a look at the pictures below and please if you know any possible solutions ansewer me

PS: maybe Java's last update is responsible...who knows?

Mr Robville · « **Reply #25094 on:** January 21, 2014, 18:55:20 »

Have you tried restarting your computer?

The selection window also hangs on my computer on rare occasions. Rebooting the PC fixed it for me.

GeoP17 · « **Reply #25095 on:** January 21, 2014, 19:37:32 »

Ah, i have already done it

It's looks like to me as an error to windows aero - the ui theme
Can you boot your computer up in recovery mode and go back to the last update?

GeoP17 · « **Reply #25097 on:** January 22, 2014, 13:38:09 »

I have already done it as well.... I spent an hour yesterday to find out the reason of the problem...

If I uninstall Java and reinstall it again will it be a possible solution?

PS: I just want to know how this problem is called and then search it on the internet

Dannypenguin · « **Reply #25098 on:** January 22, 2014, 22:10:38 »

Sorry Geop, I can't help $:-\$ hope you get it fixed though

Captain Cadet · « **Reply #25099 on:** January 22, 2014, 23:53:55 »
