Duchy Original Elderflower Refresher Not In Stock

Posted by Paul Farrow - Under: Personal

Went to buy some Duchy Elderflower Refresher in my local Waitrose

and couldnt find a drop, now its my favourite summer drink.  Was told by an assistant that Duchy are changing their packaging and until that is finalised Waitrose were temporarily not stocking the product.

Weird, I have emailed HRH Prince Charles personally to find out what is happening !!!  Will keep you updated of any response from him.

How Can I Remove That IPhoto Export Plugin ? Such as Facebook IPhoto Exporter.

Posted by Paul Farrow - Under: Apple, Software

Ok go to your applications folder on your mac within the finder window.  Right click the iphoto application icon and click show contents.  Browse to the plugins folder and look for a folder named the same as the exporter your looking to remove.

Delete the folder that is the same name as the exporter your trying to delete and bobs your uncle – the exporter will be removed next time you start IPhoto.

Nikon D5000 – First Images

Posted by Paul Farrow - Under: Hardware, Personal

Decided it was time I got myself a digital SLR and saw the reviews on engadget of the new Nikon D5000. The price was good and I have been fed up with the camera on my HTC mobile, especially as I have been taking a lot of photos on my visits to the states.

Jessops this weekend had a sale on so bought the camera, extra lense, 8gb SD card and you got a free bag as part of the deal. I ordered the GP-1 unit for it as well (although have to wait 28 days for that) so that I can store the gps position of the photo as this seems to be the latest fashion in the world of photography.

I even negotiated about 50 pounds off the sale price. :)

Here are the first images taken with the camera…..

Wordpress RSS Feed Not Including Images

Posted by Paul Farrow - Under: Software

Ok so searched high and low for this and finally found out that it was my theme that I had added which was wrong.  Look for feed_rss2.php in wp-includes and look for some code in there, that uses use_excerpt_rss my theme used this whether the rss setting->full (rather than summary) was selected or not in the settings->reading.

If you change the else to be “the_content()” rather than “the_excerpt_rss()” it works.  Your images are sent in the description so then the rss readers can read the whole article.
