hi Trev,
they settling in quite well, though Ria is quite vocal when other dogs come too close and is very protective.
both pulled on the lead, but I walk them on a check chain at the moment, and they are slowly getting the idea.

the one annoying habit is they, unlike me, like to get up at about 05:30 to go out for a pee.

funnily, about a week or so before I had the chance of these two I had phoned DAC Melton Mobray to enquire about rehoming an ex RAFP dog, but had to leave a message.
I had a call from them this morning, a lovely lady, who said the office had not been manned recently, and she was working her way through the voice messages.

I've had the same problem trying to copy photos from my Android to my Windows 10 desktop. The computer connects to the phone initially and I can view the contents of the phone on the computer, but if I select a lot of files to copy and then try to paste, the connection breaks down. I was able to reconnect and copy a smaller number of files though.

My 'Peak' arrived today. No issues at all. Great runner and looker




However, I am not happy at all with the small purchase which came with it. All the pics on t'interweb seemed to show these as ready made up. Being totally cack handed following my triple bypass 9 years ago, there is no way I can put these  :censored: things together so a total waste of money :veryangry:

So far as I know they are both up to date. We run updates whenever we are notified of them.

Firstly, do both phones and laptops have the latest software?  There may be security updates that need to be installed.

Strange that both phones and both laptops are having trouble.

I'm after some advice again.

My wife has been trying to copy some files from her mobile (Android) to her laptop (Windows 11), but we can't get the two to talk to each other. The laptop gives us this message:



We've tried different cables. We've tried her phone with my laptop without success. We have tried my phone in her laptop, same result, and a similar message. Finally, I tried my phone with my laptop and it still doesn't work, even though it has done so in the past. Normally, I drag down the notification bar and tap where it says 'Charging the device via USB' which normally gives me the option of transferring files, but not now.

We originally thought there was a fault with her phone, but it's obviously more complicated than that. Anybody got any ideas?

Cheers,

Chris

One of the great visionaries of modern music.

Like @Papyrus I rated The Beach Boys above The Beatles of whom I was never much of a fan.
 
We saw Brian Wilson at Glastonbury in around 2008 with his band although it was uncertain how much of a role he played that afternoon.

Yes, a troubled genius who will be sadly missed.
