    Sarah Guppy

    Although Isambard Kingdom Brunel got the credit for building the Clifton Suspension Bridge in Bristol, It would never have had been built if it wasn't for a Birmingham woman. I salute you Sarah Guppy...

    Memories of a Birmingham Musician (Drummer)!

    Thanks Maurice for trying to enlighten a thicko like me, but I guess I will always be confused. So I assume it must be getting harder and harder for a songwriter to come up with original tunes. Talking about YouTube, I uploaded a video of my grandaughter who was about 8-9 at the time dancing...

    Memories of a Birmingham Musician (Drummer)!

    This may not be the right place for this post, but I'll try it anyway. Over the last few weeks I have seen reports of where someone is taking some else to court for copying their music. Now, I am not a musician but are'nt there only 12 notes in a scale, and if so, then surely there must be a...

    That car park was the one I always used when I came into town, it was the easiest one to park on for me. The buses are coming down from the Old Square.

    Co-op Shops At Bucklands End Lane, Castle Bromwich

    Glad its the right one. We have some talented people on here who could probably remove the marking for you. Just say pretty please, well, I'll say it for you. :-)

    The Tom Thumb

    Just came across this pic on another forum. I have only ever seen one pic of the Tom Thumb before and that was a distance shot. This one is more close up albeit it is boarded up. Thanks to the original poster.

    The Palladium Cinema Hockley Picture House

    That was the place where I first got into 'rock'n'roll. I went and watched the film 'The girl can't help it' starring Eddie Cochrane. I was only about 1o yrs old but I became hooked.

    Xenforo bugs/help

    In the old version when you was on the new posts page, if someone made a post that included an attachment there used to be a paper clip thingy bob to show that this post includes attachments. Funnily enough I miss the paper clip. I did'nt read all the messages especially if someone was looking...

    Xenforo bugs/help

    I quite like it, like anything else we will soon forget we was using a different version. Just one question, is there a way we can change the colour scheme? Most of us will probably continue as it is, but it would be nice to have another option.

    Windows 10

    Thanks for that guilbert53, I have now unticked the hidden folders box so no problem there. The other problem I have is the one that bothers me more and that is when I click on a drive I have no right click menu. I still think its was caused by one of the regular updates as I am sure I used to...

    Windows 10

    A couple of questions if anyone can help. 1. In file explorer, the quick access column, I am unable to get a right click menu on a drive, I don't know why, but I used to. Anyone know why? 2. If I insert a USB stick there is a folder called System Volume Information, never seen it before and it...
