Response Regarding surge protectors….

Some only work once but continue to provide mains power but there is no indication that the surge protection is not functioning anymore!!

You get what you pay for I guess,

Cheers, Keith

 

 

Responses –Amazon Fire Stick

In response to yesterday’s enquiry, I have used a Fire Stick since last summer.  You need to have a service which hides the ISP in Spain

There are several free ones on the internet, although paid ones are a little more secure.

Please do not send ads for property / real estate.

All formatting, pretty colours, bold, underlining, strange fonts etc are automatically removed.

Please – Don’t use all Block CAPITALS LIKE THIS or I may have to send it back for you to put into normal case (This is the way people normally write, with capital letters where appropriate – such as “I” and place names “Malaga”, makers’ names such as “Electrolux”,

days of the week “Monday”

You must include contact details, either an email address or a telephone number in the text. If you don’t I cannot publish it. Often I cannot “extract “your email address from the email, so repeat it please.

Your email address must be quoted in this forrmat…I insert spaces within the address so that nasty software can’t steal their address for spam purposes – e,g, my address is correctly   janekirkspain@gmail,com

if it were a Contributor’s address I’d insert spaces thus –

janekirkspain @ gmail,com.

So all you do is remove those spaces before contacting a contributor.
