Notification of Solo Divorce Request Received

Hi All,

I have received notification that my wife has applied for a solo divorce and also wishes to apply for an financial order.

I have until the 10th August to reply to the initial email. I do not disagree with the divorce so should I do the first part and acknolodge the request from my side ?

What would be the next steps, im presuming some legal advice is seeked with regards to the financials (theres no children or property involved, she has the car, dog and household furniture/appliances etc). Financial wise we both contributed monthly into a joint account for rent/food shopping etc while also operating seperate bank accounts for daily spending

During the seperation period (nearly a year) I moved into rented accommodation and purchased goods etc myself, I believe she has bought a property during this time - will this all need taking into account?

Many thanks

Dug out my RG350m

Hi all just got my RG350m out of a storage box as want to revisit Acorn BBC Micro emulation on it.

I’ve got opendingux on the internal SD card and that’s it

Is this still the best firmware , or any other recommendations ? I saw a YouTube video referencing CMB_v5.0 but doesn’t look like that’s being seeded . Preference for 8 bit and early 16 bit machines

Connectwise Screenconnect behind Watchguard M270

Hi All,

Im trying to get Screenconnect (Connectwise Cloud) to work successfully on machines behind a Watchguard M270.

Currently the screenconnect service connects to the connectwise cloud and we can see the machine is online, however when a connection is established the backstage session never establishes and we get "Waiting for you guest..."

I have firewall rules in place from Any-Trusted to 3 Screenconnect IP's I have identified during monitoring the traffic log, I have also excluded *.screenconnect.com/* from the HTTPS proxy.

Adding / excluding Screenconnect from Application Control does not make any difference the behaviour is the same.

Any other help would be great :)

Many Thanks

Do I need todo the retention dance?

Hi All,

I have just found out my 18 month introductory offer (VM Refer a friend) has now expired on my Virgin Media account - thanks for letting me know! This means my bill for Gig 1 Broadband and Mega TV is going to increase to £143.45

Is it time to get on the phone to retentions or is it too late - my contract doesnt expire until 2027?

Edit: I thought VM internal refer a friend (staff) would be a discount for the life of the contract?

Final update: ditched the TV now as I hardly watch anything and got 1gb with Netflix with Ads £24pcm

Increasing use of Evri for Prime deliveries

Anyone in the South West also noticing an increase in Prime deliveries being palmed off to Evri for delivery?

Amazon Logistics are brilliant and stuff arrives on time, however the Evri courier for our area must only work after 6pm and considering a business is being delivered to there is noone here to accept the delivery.

Unable to enroll Teams Phone - Device Restriction Blocked

Hi All,

I am trying to enroll a Yealink Teams Phone to a tenant. The Teams phone shows up in the Teams Admin center and the initial onboarding with the PIN has been completed.

When we try to sign in as the user, the device fails and I notice the following in Intune

Enrollment Failure - This device cant be enrolled while the platform is Blocked under Device Type Restrictions.

Enrollment Start : 6/24/2026

OS

OS Version 12.0

I understand that Teams devices now enroll as Android AOSP as their device platform. If I look at the Enrollment restrictions for Android , Devices > Enrollment > Enrollment Restrictions > Android Restrictions , the default Restrictions policy targetting all users does not allow for Android AOSP to be added to the Platform settings. (All platforms are set to Allow)

Does a seperate policy need creating (maybe under Enrollment > AOSP) to get these devices enrolled correctly ready for use ?

Many Thanks

Hi All,

Is anyone making use of Quick Links in their sharepoint site and opening the linked document (XLS/DOC etc) in the native desktop app

Open Documents in Client Applications by Default has been setup and this has been working as expected until this week (upon return from UK holiday)

When a quick link is now created in SPO the ?web=1 is now being appended to the URL automatically with no way of changing the behaviour.

Does anyone have any ideas or have noticed this in their tenant?
