+Us 4 and Jess Posted July 12, 2008 Author Share Posted July 12, 2008 Well I am totally shocked........ Stop oggling all the photos Mandy! How about a 'thumbnails' preview! How much will the calendars be? Can I order one - like yesterday! Your just jealous Nope no previews on this one (but chocolate and alcohol make good bribes) I cant say a price for the calendars or the "C" on here but they will be the normal price of my A5 all the details will be on a Just Giving page later today. Added your name to my list I actually want to know if you could do me a favour, a certain gent in your area is willing to pose for a photo but because his wife is "injured" he does not have a photographer, he needs someone to take a photo and to go to an area where he wont be "arrested" I am sure you will know who I mean if you could contact him and sort something out I would be grateful Mandy Link to comment
+Munkeh Posted July 12, 2008 Share Posted July 12, 2008 Errr.. Pharisee, I really don't think it's fair to call Mandy a "daft Geordie"!!! She's not a Geordie shes a mackum! Link to comment

M 35 left I think it's time to start naming and shaming now Mandy.... That is naming the ladies who are buying them up The brave ones are on the Just Giving page Bob, the rest of the ladies and myself have a secret handshake I know of one bloke on the calendar whos wife doen't know he has done this he is going to give her a "surprise" at the Mega I cant wait to see her face!! Another thing this year is no one has seen previews of their pages When I make a calendar I always email the completed month to the person whos photos are on the page to make sure everything is OK, but I have started using Office 2007 and everyone else seems to use Office 2003 so can't open the pages I have sent which means most folks will be in for a surprise when they see their months Mandy Link to comment
+Us 4 and Jess Posted July 15, 2008 Author Share Posted July 15, 2008 Is there any EASY way for people using Office 2003 to open an Office 2007 email/file ? M Link to comment
+scottpa100 Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 (edited) Yes, go to Office Button, Save As, and select the Option to save in office 2003 format. Or... (we've had to do this in work for peeps in our Education department) is get people who use Office 2003 to install the Microsoft Compatibility Pack available on this here linky. Edited because I said File, Save As originally rather than Office button, Save As. Old habits die hard. Edited July 15, 2008 by scottpa100 Link to comment
+Maple Leaf Posted July 15, 2008 Share Posted July 15, 2008 Is there any EASY way for people using Office 2003 to open an Office 2007 email/file ? M I haven't got a copy of 2007 in front of me and have only used it a few times .... but I am pretty sure there is an option to save for earlier versions (also, from memory I think the 2007 puts another letter in front of or behind the .doc so as long as it is just .doc you should be ok) I am sure someone who currently uses 2007 will be along in a moment if I am wrong.

+Us 4 and Jess Posted July 25, 2008 Author Share Posted July 25, 2008 (edited) There are 4 calendars left and I am sure these will sell at the Mega Event, I would like to thank all the "GeoHunks" for being such good sports and also everyone who has bought the calendars for their support. I would like to add that I have personally asked for this thread to be closed as I have been reported to Grounspeak for the thread twice now, and I know I have been a bit "naughty" It does leave a bitter taste in my mouth that I go out of my way to do something good and try to raise a bit of money for good causes only for it to be spoilt by certain people.
