Best song,artist ever. Brilliant!!

Brilliant version of Hallelujah by the pentatonics. They do loads more,such as Bohemium rapsody No instuments,just voice.

ATTENTION 🚫 *If I get vaccinated*:/ Treatment 1.- Can I stop wearing the mask? - No 2.- Can they reopen restaurants etc and everyone work normally? - No 3.- Will I be resistant to covid? - *May be*, but we don't know exactly, it probably won't stop you getting it 4.- At least I won't be contagious to others anymore? - *No you can still pass it on*, possibly, nobody knows. 5.- If we vaccinate all children, will school resume normally? - No 6.- If I am vaccinated, can I stop social distancing? - No 7.- If I am vaccinated, can I stop disinfecting my hands? - No 8.- If I vaccinate myself and my grand parents , can we hug each other/say goodbye before they die. - No 9.- Will cinemas, theatres and stadiums be reopened as normal, after vaccines? - No 10.- Will the vaccinated be able to gather the community closer? - No 11.- What is the real benefit of vaccination? - *The virus may not kill you*. 12.- Are you sure it won't kill me? - No 13.- If statistically the virus didn't kill me anyway ... Why would I get vaccinated?" - To protect others. 14.- So if I get vaccinated, the others are 100% sure I'm not infecting them? - No 15.- is there liability if I get seriously injured or die? -NO 💥 So it is true that the shot does not give immunity. Does not eliminate the virus. Does not prevent death. Does not guarantee you won’t get it. Does not prevent you from getting Covid.. Does not stop you passing it on Does not eliminate the need for travel bans. Does not eliminate the need for business closures. Does not eliminate the need for lockdowns. Does not eliminate the need for masking. So...Why the hell am I getting vaccinated.... To keep running the pharmaceutical BUSINESS? to help bring in the "Great reset". Something more nefarious? 🤔 End the lockdowns and restrictions NOW 🚫🚫🚫

Made me laugh...To think i voted for this stooge?

Wow was a good advisor on many things years ago R.I.P.

Goodbye old friend. Gone but never forgotten.

Spoke to Bod today for the first time in years, stil his old self, he's married now, but to be honest i had not heard from him in so long i didn't even know if he was alive or not, it's good to know he's doing ok All1

Thanks Gazza and great to see it continuing. Jamerspad will outlive facebook.

Indeed massive thanks Gazza 👏

I have upgraded the forum today to the very latest version.

Nice one James, you have the heart of a lion to keep the site going. I have been here from the start and am just as guilty as all the other members by not posting as much as I should even have Jamers is set as my home page Regards mate

Thank you Gazza Zorro Macs and to everyone else.

Okay I'll have a look but think I'lll end up with a second line on 02

I would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Happy new year everyone 😀

Have you ever had a dog who's back end was more dangerous than its front. We had a cross German Shepherd cross Newfoundland called Tagg,all 12.5 stone of her. A real gentle giant,wouldnt hurt a fly but she hated cats, Chased one down the garden,cat went over the fence,didnt even slow her down,she just went through it.Came back with 2" of cats tail in her mouth & a smile on her face.Cat never came back in her garden but went in all our neighbours. But when she farted everyone had to leave,even she wanted to go outside & she used to just stand on the doorstep till it was safe again!!!

I am mostly over covid now but reckon I am still not fully there. I was doing couch to 5k before and I was half way through but now I can not run at all. Still got a dad in hospital unable to walk. Even through he has not got covid now, it was covid that put him there and to be honest I don't think he will recover. This is serious. Lots of stupid talk about vaccines not being safe etc and it take 10 years to make a vaccine. That is correct in a way but most of that is getting funding, doing research etc. Reading a magazine last night about this virus is actually not as bad as one could be. More virus's are jumping from animal to man as we take away their natural habitats. We might not be so lucky with the next one. https://www.menshealth.com/uk/health/a35487821/could-we-have-stopped-the-covid-19-pandemic-can-we-prevent-the-next-one/ Worth reading.

ha ha cheeky! This was 1999-2000

I have this evening upgraded to the latest version 4.5.4, you may see a few additional features..

I have started the forum upgrade process, so you may see some odd colouring etc in the themes but we should be all good within a few days.

my thought will be with him on that morning, thank you for letting us know. my sincere condolences to his family and friends, rest in peace Morgan

RIP dude, not spoken in a few years. Missed but not forgotten

Really sorry to hear this but we know from the above its what Alloneword wanted. We all hope he is at peace now. Thank you Sterling for coming on and letting us all know. As you said it was a request from him to let us know which goes to show the always thinking of others attitude he has always done in the past - always friendly and helpful to all. Derren

Sad day,you will be sorely missed m8.

I have never met any pad members in real life but have known some of you on here in some shape or form going all the way back to the end of the 90s (I think it was 97/98 when i become a member) I remember A1W going back 20 years ago now we chatted on and off for 20 years So I can say for one he will be missed. R.I.P A1W

This is awful, so very sad. sleep well old friend RIP

Yea he was a super mod on the GSM forum but had a row with someone and got banned, that's my Dave speaks his mind, just pleased he's happy

I would personally like to say a massive THANK YOU to Gazza!! Not only has Gazza provided JamersPad with hosting he has even done all the hard work for me, like backing up the database then transferring everything across to his server. I am more than grateful. During this process we have had no disruption to our forums at all. I have also now made Gazza admin along with myself as this makes sense. Once again Thanks Gazza you are a top man!! JamersPad continues with his generous help and hosting!

could be a number of things, you just have to start from basics, what speed are you getting at the moment? how are you connecting NAS, cable to your router or to pc ? or wifi. where are you transferring the files to, from NAS to PC if connected to your router by Ethernet cable, first put it direct to your pc by Ethernet cable and check you can get a good speed there first. Could be your router slowing the speed, check port speeds on router. ideally you need Gigabit ports for full speed if by wifi what band you using 2.4 or 5 GHZ see if you can connect using the 5GHZ as its faster with new devices, also try a different channel. You can get a phone app to scan and see what devices are using what channel so you can use a channel that's free. I had a sinology and if I remember right when I had one you have to change or check that your running file transfer in SMB3 protocol a quick google on what I had originally came up with the issue and fix on my unit https://bobmckay.com/i-t-support-networking/nas-media-servers/solved-slow-transfer-speeds-synology-nas/

Looks cool Jamer i have emailed them and hopefully get a reply soon, will let you know what goes one All1

Yes, many thanks from this side of the pond!

Thanks Gazza,Much appreciated by all.

Brilliant news thank you Gazza

I think the idea behind staying is to ease the pressure on the NHS so 10,000 don't turn up in one week better to have 2,500 a week for 4 weeks rather than 10k in a single goal but if that is the case then certain parts of the uk will be on lockdown for some considerable time. stormbringer Christ man so sorry to hear this news, i hope everything goes ok for your buddy in ICU Eddie Large from "Little & Large" has died off COVID as well today ? All1

Watch and listen Allone - It is about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward

I have just paid another £60 for the next 6 months hosting. Thank you to the 3 members who kindly sent me donations, that is really appreciated.Gazza has kindly offered to give me free hosting, so I will have discussions with Gazza and move the site across probably sometime in the New Year.Please ALL continue using our forum here and lets see if we can increase the activity!Bookmark the back up website, so that if JamerPad ever goes offline at anytime, you will have a place to make contact, there is also our Facebook page. I will prevent allowing more posts on the other website within the next 24 hours Thanks Jamer Read more: http://jamerspad.freeforums.net/thread/23/original-pad-safe-6-months#ixzz61cM6Hgne

Jamerspad has been amazing and what an adventure. Met new friends here, learned so much and managed to save quite a lot on movies and software with recommendations of where to get things cheaper ? Like you Jamer I have also run sites that now are not visited and have closed them. Its such a shame however facebook still has a legacy of Jamerspad and it hopefully can go someway to fill this huge void. Jamer - also thanks for your hard work over the years and all the mods etc

Sad news indeed. Always been my first stop when I turn my computer on. Any way to fund it from ads?

I originally set up JamersPad back in 1997, during this time we have seen many changes to the forum, I have tried to keep up with the latest software and I think we have managed it all okay. Where has this 20 years gone? Thank you to all our members who have remained loyal. We have seen many website come and go and we are still here. We are a little quieter these days but we still have many members, keep them topics coming! Happy birthday JamersPad Thank you Jamer

All the latest features can be found here, lots of new things much faster too.

I am still alive ............I think lol

Right now........... it's bloody raining

Nice one Jamer, unfortunately I no longer use FB cos of problems in the past but nice tto see

I had PPI on my mortgage with a building society that did not exist anymore. The PPI people called and wanted my case NO wonder at 30% of anything they get You might have been happy Macs with someone taking your dosh for doing 2 hours work (in your case you must have been due over 12K) I was not and told em to do one. In all honesty - I would rather get nothing than fill their pockets with my actual money. A bit of research (not hard) I found that the original building society had been bought out by the Halifax I went on the Halifax site and they had a section that just deals with PPI. I had long lost the paying in book - no online banking in those days and no idea what the account number was. All I could supply was my name and the address of the property. They had to physically go through old paperwork (from the old society) but they found it and I was paid a decent lump (with no 30% taken of) 6 months after I had been paid out, I received another cheque for £122.30 and a letter explaining that I had left £14 in an account and it had accrued interest. :) MY advice - do your own digging before letting the leeches have a go. They have no more resources than you do.

Think I have been here for almost the 20 too. Been banned a couple of times so a different name these days. (Got threat of violence from an old admin - so I wound him up and he banned me lol - came back under a different name, told him who I really was - banned me again haha) When software and 'stuff was hard to get hold of - Jamers could usually come up trumps

Same as jasram. Not been here for a while but wanted to wish everyone happy 20th Birthday

No i have nothing here that will do it, i know you can buy turntables that plug into USB ports but last time i looked they were £50 and as i said in other thread i can buy the CD for £35 i was just hoping someone might have one of these USB turntables

Hi Bazz, Welcome back. Recently a lot of the "old timers" have been showing up. It is kind of like people retiring and returning to their old home town. Jamer has been upgrading the site and it is really coming along well. Don't go disappearing again for an extended period.
