Oh, by the way Andy. Have you heard of Google? I find it quite helpful if I need to find out information from t'internet. Beats asking the closed and slightly unhinged population on this forum.......

That will be because someone using that computer has been doing a lot of searching about that very topic. I get ads on big knockers and fit blondes

Andy, I went camping at the weekend and stayed here...
http://www.galmptontouringpark.co.uk/ (oops, don't know if that linky thing will work). Anyhoo, it was brilliant - lovely big area to stick up a tent, it was on top of a hill overlooking some estuary, 10 min walk from pub and only £15 per night. Showers and loos modern and clean. Definitely recommend it. One word of warning though, if you use pitch 181, watch out for a bit of scorched grass... o:)

It could quite easily be 41, actually.
40.5 = 41
0.5 = 1
40.5+ 0.5 = 41.
Yes, I was a smug little bastard at school. One of my primary school teachers (Oldway Primary ftw!) used to throw chalk at me for that reason.

We are put into this world to find answers, and to learn which are the right answers and which the wrong ones. In order to do this, it helps if we know the right questions to ask. Obviously, anyone on this thread, for example, who asks the wrong question, will not get they answer they really need.
Does that answer your question?

Can someone help me with a computer problem? Basically I have downloaded trillions of videos I have taken on my phone and imported them onto my computer. Is there any device I can store them on just incase my pc goes t*ts up? Like a USB stick, could I put everything on there? Cheers.

You can buy a spare hard drive and put it in an enclosure to make an external hard drive and backup anything important to it. All my most important stuff like pictures of my kids or documents is spread over several hard drives in different locations and I regularly update them all. I've had way too many customers over the years who thought they'd lost their data (some did unfortunately) and seen how upsetting it can be.
In your case the video files would probably end up being too large in total size to use a USB stick although you could copy them to a number of dvd discs, dual layer discs if you have the right dvd drive can double the storage space of a normal disc. Easiest method is an external drive though.
