    Shhhh OFH - you're showing your age - I don't have any of those either - it is bad enough having to use magnifying glasses to read small print on adverts etc

    Sounds good to me <laugh> If I have a problem with mine I get one of my apprentices to fix it ! although work in a cunning tax dodge bought us all a new lap top! I ended up with a little Lenovo that fits into a small pocket in my back pack rather well! Is ace for travelling with! even if in a non wifi area I can tether it to my phone !
    Use my Dell laptop as my telly , stereo and home base , skpye phone etc!
    Makes you wonder how the hell we coped 20 years ago!

    We were tough - that's how! I went for over a decade without finding the need for a phone - even after suffering a snake bite whilst working in the middle of nowhere, about 150 miles from the nearest phone.

    Now I have a home with one in just about every room, plus two mobiles that for some reason I can't walk out of the house without. :emoticon-0111-blush

    Just thinking about phones and how Elton used to run up vast bills listening in to the hospital radio match commentaries when he was in some far flung corner of the world.

    Then my next thought reminded me that he has not given up his life president role since Mr.B arrived. I wonder if he approves, as I would wager that he knows more than I do.

    In the book Tilforladelige efterretninger om Island which is in dansh chapter 72 is this

    No snakes of any kind are to be met with throughout the whole island.

    One sentence only.

    hello all

    feeling much better after reading BHD's thread

    now all we need is a decent song

    Sean Dyche's Taylor Made Army doesn't really scan well

    and Seany Dychey's Taylor Made Army scans well but sounds ridiculous

    If only I could be bothered to start a thread

    maybe tomorrow

    <redwine> please...yes, yes I know it's only Wednesday, but hey
