USe Excel to open the asc file as a text file then save as a CSV. Thanks for that, Neil, I'll give it a go. :) Andy.

Can anybody tell me if it is poss. to convert ASC files into CSV files? I believe they are similar but the SmartSt software for my Navman iCN 720 will only recognise CSV files and the POI files I've got are in the ASC format. Any instructions/work arounds greatfully received, many thanks, Andy.

Ask the ebay sellers if the Transit ones have locating/fixing pegs on the back of them. Courier ones do but they can be cut off and then use 3m tape to stick on. ;) Andy.

A priest, a doctor, and an engineer were waiting one morning for a particularly slow group of golfers. The engineer fumed, "What's with those blokes? We must have been waiting for fifteen minutes!" The doctor chimed in, "I don't know, but I've never seen such inept golf!" The priest said, "Here comes the greens keeper. Let's have a word with Him." He said, "Hello, George! What's wrong with that group ahead of us? They're rather slow, aren't they?" The greens keeper replied, "Oh, yes. That's a group of blind fire fighters. They lost their sight saving our clubhouse from a fire last year, so we always let them play for free anytime." The group fell silent for a moment. The priest said, "That's so sad. I think I will say a special prayer for them tonight." The doctor said, "Good idea. I'm going to contact my ophthalmologist colleague and see if there's anything he can do for them." The engineer said, "Why can't they play at night?" The graduate with a science degree asks, "Why does it work?" The Graduate with an engineering degree asks, "How does it work?" The Graduate with an accounting degree asks, "How much will it cost?" The Graduate with an arts degree asks, "Do you want fries with that?" Three engineering students were gathered together discussing the possible designers of the human body. One said, "It was a mechanical engineer. Just look at all the joints." Another said, "No, it was an electrical engineer. The nervous system has many thousands of electrical connections." The last one said, "No, actually it had to have been a civil engineer. Who else would run a toxic waste pipeline through a recreational area?"

If its an early Mk2 then the there wont be a socket, if its a late Mk1 it should be in the right hand rear storage box where the jack is stored. They are usually tucked down behind the light cluster. ;) Andy.

Surely a bottom-feeder would be in an Aquarium :lol: Andy.

Hi wolfie, what does your '95 or '96 brochure say about the air-con availability for a N reg factory six seater 2.0 Ghia Auto? Andy.

A nun, badly needing to use the toilet, walked into a local Hooters restaurant. The place was hopping with music and loud conversation and every once in a while the lights would turn off. Each time the lights would go out, the place would erupt into cheers. However, when the revelers saw the nun, the room went dead silent. She walked up to the bartender, and asked, "May I please use the toilet? The bartender replied, "OK, but I should warn you that there is a statue of a naked man in there wearing only a fig leaf." Well, in that case I'll just look the other way," said the nun. So, the bartender showed the nun to the back of the restaurant. After a few minutes, she came back out, and the whole place stopped just long enough to give the nun a loud round of applause. She went to the bartender and said, "Sir, I don't understand. Why did they applaud for me just because I went to the toilet?" "Well, now they know you're one of us," said the bartender, "Would you like a drink?" But, I still don't understand," said the puzzled nun. "You see," laughed the bartender, "every time someone lifts the fig leaf on that statue, the lights go out.

The Ford brochure for the first MK2's, published July 2000, gives a MAX towing limit of 2000kg for the 1.9 TDi 90 at the vehicles Gross Mass of 2430kg. At the kerbweight of 1666kg the towing limit is going to be nearer the 1500kg stated in the handbook. :lol: Andy.

a few years back I worked on a cable gang in east anglia, Is that the modern equivalent of a chain gang? :huh: :o

What is the difference between girls/woman aged: 8, 18, 28, 38, 48, 58, 68 and 78? At 8 -- You take her to bed and tell her a story. At 18 -- You tell her a story and take her to bed. At 28 -- You don't need to tell her a story to take her to bed. At 38 -- She tells you a story and takes you to bed At 48 -- She tells you a story to avoid going to bed. At 58 -- You stay in bed to avoid her story. At 68 -- If you take her to bed, that'll be a story! At 78 -- What story??? What bed??? Who the hell are you???

sorry did you say something? :ph34r: you talking to me.........? (now how do you intimate an Italian/American accent) :lol:

It needs something to liven-up the forum again! :ph34r: Andy.

I wondered why you hadn't answered my PM. :unsure: Andy.

how that done Put scales under hitch, insert handle of hammer (or similar) into ball hitch, rest hammer head on scales and with the corner steadies raised, carefully wind the jockey wheel up until all the weight is on the hammer/scales. Usual recommendation is between 50 and 70 kgs and IIRC shouldn't be more than 75kgs for the Gal. :unsure: Andy.

Understanding Engineers - Take Two To the optimist, the glass is half full. To the pessimist, the glass is half empty. To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be. Understanding Engineers - Take Three What is the difference between mechanical engineers and civil engineers? Mechanical engineers build weapons and civil engineers build targets Understanding Engineers - Take Four Normal people believe that if it isn't broke, don't fix it. Engineers believe that if it isn't broke, it doesn't have enough features yet.

You'll be getting a bit closer to there soon enough. :lol: Andy.

Lithuania used to be part of the USSR, NE of Poland, next door to Latvia.

Point them in the direction of a few local hotels/B&B's to look at the room rates and then they might realise how lucky they are. Geez, "when I was a lad we had to live in a cardboard box in middle o'road.............etc, etc, etc" ;) Andy.

OP has a 2.3, see here: http://www.fordgalaxy.org.uk/ford/index.php?showtopic=12409 so its unlikely to be a turbo running down...... ;) Andy.

It doesn't seem to matter if you smash up a motor costing

IIRC means 'if I remember correctly', IIRC the tyre pressures could be on a sticker inside the fuel filler flap or on a sticker on the B pillar inside the drivers door. :lol: Andy.

Thanks for that. :D Had a great day........ up at 5.45 to get the work done before hareing up to Cheltenham for the privilage of standing in the pouring rain watching my eldest play hockey, then to Gloucester to have lunch in an Italian restaurant by the historic docks which was CLOSED for re-development :16: , Frankie and Benny's saved the day :lol: , then a nice drive home down the Welsh side of the Severn, well it would of been nice it but for the monsoon. To think, this time last year I was enjoying a romantic!!!!! :D weekend away in Paris......... there's always next year :lol: Andy.

According to the news on Radio 2, the only thing they have found in the dodgy fuel that shouldn't be in there is silicon?? :lol: Andy.
