You might be able to rescue it if you take it to a specialist.

It was backed up on the college PC but our accounts got wiped when everybody re-enrolled.
Strangely now that I've looked more closely, it's all just Word documents I've done on my home PC and then been corrupted when opened on the college PC.
Anything created on my PC and edited at college went corrupt.
Anything created at college and edited anywhere has been fine.
Not sure what to do really :/

nearly just started an avon distribution business with a strange sales lady at my door. I'm terrible at saying no and she wanted me to buy catalogues for £50! I might be trendy but avon is my limit.

What is this life if, full of care, We have no time to stand and stare. No time to stand beneath the boughs And stare as long as sheep or cows. No time to see, when woods we pass, Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass. No time to see, in broad daylight, Streams full of stars, like skies at night. No time to turn at Beauty's glance, And watch her feet, how they can dance. No time to wait till her mouth can Enrich that smile her eyes began. A poor life this if, full of care, We have no t...

tracked down and spoke to the niece of my 1275gts first owner from 1970 today. The only story she had about the car is that her aunt learnt to drive in it, failed her test loads of times and only passed 'because she slept with the examiner! Happy Days! :)

I laughed when the guy told me how much to recore my radiator. Bought a new Metro one instead.

Had my third breakdown today. It was the coil this time. I'm slowly replacing everything that can go wrong on the car - sadly this means I'm nearing the next problem/thing I have to replace ;D

I know what you mean. The steering feels like jelly and there's no 'bite' in the clutch. And the brakes are too good!

So my dad comes round to work on the car, get everything ready... and the battery is dead. Oh well, at least we cleaned and polished the beast. I guess it will have to wait until next Monday before we try and start it :/
