David broke Media Player. All point and laugh. A fundamental component of Windows that most of us can’t get rid of if we want to, and David manages to screw it up when he needs it. Hee hee. (Smug laugh – I still have Media Player. Don’t use it, though.)
I would go and give him a hand, but it’s quite a long way up the hill to Collingwood. It’s quite a distance – I’ve drawn a quick sketch map to help those less-geographically-minded of you to see the immense distance. It is to scale.
We tried using Windows’ Remote Assistance feature. It’s quite good fun (I get to control his desktop while I’m here and he’s there), but still no good.
Any ideas?

It broke itself.
And i can’t fix it.
So head over to my blog and help if you can!
And, it’s not miles to Collingwood…it’s only about a 20 min walk!
aaaah you fool!
Dearest Dafyd,
I must point out, as a fellow geographer and great pal of your friend David, that Collingwood is indeed in Durham, from my perspective I believe that it is in fact further south than that pashmina nightmare that some people refer to as ‘Castle’, hence the name of the great student highway ‘South Road’ (you fool). To us poor little minions on the hill, Castle does seem to be in Scotland, your perspective is TOTALLY WRONG!! In conclusion, you have also neglected to put on a very important place called Darlington on your map, David will be very hurt as this is where the trains came from originally and also where I live, and I am naturally very important
Bye bye, love always

Yes – South Road goes south from Collingwood to Castle. Duh. I would have put Collingwood somewhere in the bottom of the map, but then it sort of moves to Buckinghamshire, and that gives totally the wrong impression.
For the record, I have not seen a single pashmina in the four months I’ve been here – except once, outside Hatfield.
I have put Darlington on the map (with trains) – terribly sorry for my omission.
If you know where Hogwarts is, why aren’t you there? I thought it was a highly guarded secret and protected by lots of magic thingies. However, if you do have contacts in the wizarding world, will you please get me some Fizzing Whizbees because my supply seems to be running short. Thanks very much!
