Toddler always ill

Hi. Our toddler is always ill and it is killing us. Everything that he can have he has. Seems to have a major hay-fever issue now that has developed into a cough. He just doesn't sleep and is then the meanest grumpy child in the world.

​

We are experiencing major throw himself on the floor tantrums every 30 mins and having had no sleep due to screaming wake up all night our nerves are shattered.

​

I know this will all pass but it has put us at breaking point, my partner and I barely talk because when we get anytime together we are dead on our feet.

​

He is a great kid most of the time but at the moment his tantrums make hi really hard to deal with or be around. The lack of listening I find very hard. He seems smart and when you get down to his level he knows to avoid eye contact. He hears what he wants to hear. We can't do options as he picks one and screams for the other one 5 minutes later

​

It feels like we are in a battle that we can not win. I am not surviving on 4 hours sleep a night

Labelling improvement and offer

Hi all

I have been playing with labelling for a little bit and think I have got to a decent place

I have started to take photos of the rear case from the albums I am putting onto MD.

So if anyone needs any rear photos of cases with track lists on let me know I am getting through what I can

I also have the older labels still if anyone is interested. They are on cardboard for flip cases. Happy to post them out.

Strange temperatures

Hi

Wondering if anyone else has experienced this. Our toddler for the past 4 days has had a random temperature.

The temperature only seems to be there after sleeping or a nap. We took him to the Dr and he had no temp and nothing wrong with ear or throat.

He is fine in his self but we have kept him out of nursery because his temp keeps rising on odd occasions

Sony minidisc mech without belts

Hi

I have managed to get myself a Sony ZS-M7 boombox with a minidisc and CD player. I have managed to take it apart as the minidisc eject was poor and very loud. I was expecting to have to replace an old belt but I can't see any!

The mech is a MDM 3EG.

Does anyone know why this would be loud and slow to eject? Any suggestions on how to fix

Thanks

Charity shop finds

Hi

My partner and I love a good charity shop (in UK) but I have never found anything minidisc related in one! She has told me to give in and that they probably through anything like that out! So.....

  1. Do we think that MD stuff is too old now and has been binned?

  2. It is to popular and I just miss out?

  3. It was mistaken for junk and binned?

Has anyone ever found anything?

Labelling advice and ideas

Hi all

So I have a love of labelling. Photos of where I have got to. I have done a lot of testing and failing.

I have found out the following

  1. Taking a photo of the CD booklet gives much better quality. I can't find good images online

  2. Paper quality matters, using decent photo paper

3.i added a little minidisc logo which I really like

  1. All flip cases aren't the same size!!!!

I need some advice though please all.

  1. How should I do the spine on the case?

  2. Does the bottom of the flip look ok? Where it says life aquatic

I am happy to share templates (word docs) for these if anyone is interested. Will email them to you.

I will also have a load of cardboard tests that I have done and would be happy to post for cost of postage if anyone is interested. Will just have to wait while I sort out new copies

Printing on disc

Hi all

I have managed to label print and case print for my minidisc, but was wondering if anyone has printed / labelled the disc itself?

I understand you can UV print( i can't afford that!)

But wondering if you can stick labels on the disc without affecting operation?

Sony HAR-D1000 repair

Hi all

I have been given a Sony HAR-D1000 and would like to try and get it working.

When i plug it in it is stuck in standby mode. Light is on but nothing will work. Does sound like the harddrive is making a noise but not sure it is a good sound!

Wondering if anyone had any experience with these and what to do?

Can I change the harddrive for a new one if that is the issue? How would I get the software onto the new drive?

Thanks
