Wizard back from 4,000km road trip. Beer in one hand, smoke in another, magicked a 3rd arm to move mouse. I am full of ideas ...Beware ;) Apr 9, 2018

      4000km road trip? That’s how to do it.

        That would take me a long way around the UK, wouldn't it, Nobby? I have to update that, it was 4 months ago, lol.

      My crystal ball says you have some more Trophy points coming up in the very near future! Congratulations in advance for making 1,000 posts on the forums. You talk almost as much as I do! :-) But you usually make a lot more sense! ;-)

        You stole my thunder, I was going to say "So now I have the 2nd biggest mouth on the Forum", lol. But that has been the way for some time, hasn't it? It's an honour and a privilege to be here, and enjoy such good company :) Roll on 2,000!

      Hey Wizardfromoz, I just checked out your homepage https://wizardfromozblog.wordpress.com and was curious to if this is an ongoing project? From what I can tell from looking at so far is that you are wanting it to be a place for Linux users to hangout and share information, is that correct?

        Hello Jake and welcome to linux.org :) That is so, but I have not had time to do it justice. I hope to begin to remedy that in the next few weeks. Feel free to start a conversation with me if you have further questions in that regard. Cheers Chris Turner

      Revised status, road trip adjourned for a few weeks, I'm here for the duration. "Damn' " they say "We were hoping for some time off". LOL.

      Wizard busy as a blue-arsed fly to Wednesday 14 Feb. If you need him, call Secretary & book, take 3 aspirin, be prepared to wait a little.

      Have not started using Linux yet, still in the process of establishing a good and reliable system. Due to the EXCELLENT assistance from this one and another known as Moderator, atanere. I THANK the FORUM as well as these two (2) for their kind thoughtful Assistance.

      Hey Buddy,
      I sure miss you over at Bleeping Computer. I searched all over the internet to find you and I am glad I found you here. I belong to at least half a dozen different Linux forums but I had to join this one just to say hi to you. I will look around and see if this one interests me.

      Have a good day buddy.

      Your Junior Linux Buddy,
      Rocky

        Still working out the protocols here, eg PMs but I'll duplicate this to your profile. My email is [email protected], where we can talk more. My wife Elaine, who is sitting opposite me playing Solitaire joins me in being thrilled to hear from you, Junior. Later. Chris

    [​IMG] If I'm not here, I'm working on The Blog, https://wizardfromozblog.wordpress.com/ , or having a beer ... or both :rolleyes:. . :):) THOUGHTS FOR AUGUST 2018 1. Enjoy your Linux, but always respect the right of others to enjoy theirs the way they want, it is all about freedom :D. 2. Keep an open mind, and be prepared to entertain ways of doing things differently. 3. Even Linux can become boring (Who said that :mad::rolleyes:;)?)
