    Forgive me @Byron C , that was a lot to read and so I'm not sure if I missed if you tried this. Have you tried directly through your playstation rather than via a pc?

    I've found some things work that way for some reason.

    It could be worse. Sony just seems to be incompetent, at least it's not an anti-consumer dark design pattern like cancelling your Magix Vegas Pro 365 subscription. Which you have to do via email, because they don't offer the option on the website. There's absolutely no excuse for not having a "Cancel Subscription" option on a website which has an online debit/credit card billing system.

    I did.... afterwards. And it worked perfectly.

    Glad it's sorted.

    I can't remember what I was trying to do once and getting annoyed with a "why the fricking frick can I not do this online!!!" but I could do it straight through my PS4.

    Infuriating.

    Unemployed. Some might say this is actually a good thing - I'll let you guys know when the mortgage is due next month!

    That I am still working at this time of night (1 am) and no I don't work night shifts. I'm very much meant to be a keyboard jockey on 9-5 type workdays!

    Working in a role with a million different systems in a thousand different languages, and being expected to just know it all. The ticket I've been assigned could probably be done by someone in a couple of days, I'm just finishing up week 3 and am pretty over it.

    Happens to the best of us, sadly. Rest up and look after yourself/family, it can really knock you for six.

    That not all open air or is there inside stuff? - I haven't been to an airshow since they were renting out C5s to drive around :lol:

    Hopefully you'll be fit and well by the time of your next jaunt :thumb:

    I’ve only been to one, Farnborough back when the big thing was a low, exceeding loud, fly-past by Concorde, about 50 years ago!

    Confronted a group of teenagers outside mine trying to smash the bus stop's glass, obviously didn’t go down too well because their parents would be around to rearrange my teeth shortly…

    Then I realised the mistake… My pride and joy is on the driveway, probably shouldn't have done that.

    Hopefully it's a case of hot air from them.

    I took a call from a urology consultant on my way driving home from working away all week yesterday evening and, after a couple of blood tests recently (which I'm really no good with, I always feel faint), they want me in again. All's clear with what the initial concern was, but they now want to get me in to do an ultrasound on my liver. I don't feel any different and nothing is out of the ordinary but some levels were showing as marginally high on the first test and a little higher on the second blood test. Best to get checked out for sure. I try to keep away from 'what ifs' and reading up, but it might be due to a course of Amitripylene I'm now on which currently keeps about 95% of the constant headaches away due to tension in my shoulders and neck from a long-standing whiplash injury - but it might be causing minor spikes in certain levels in my liver. It is the lowest dosage though but I guess it depends on the person and how the body reacts, maybe. I have barely any alcohol intake at all and no history of anything, even in the family. So maybe/hopefully it's just these pills and perhaps something different can be prescribed.
    It's on my mind a little bit.

    I’d much rather take paracetamol and ibuprofen than a antidepressant. Messing with your brain chemistry.

    That may be appropriate for ibuprofen but, paracetamol works by blocking pathways within the brain, so it can still be said to be messing with your brain. Having said that, I am no fan of antidepressants.
