Naturally we then thought that some upstanding Member might already have come to an understanding of this strange phenomenon, but our searches were as fruitless as a starving bat.

A fruit bat?

So there's this vampire bat, comes back to the cave late one night and his mates see his face is covered in blood. Cor, you must have had an absolute feast, they chorus, where have you been? We want some of that action. He looks a bit reluctant at first, after all who wouldn't, but then says, OK, follow me then. They set off and he gives them directions on the way. See that hill? Yep. OK, go left after the hill and continue down that valley. See that next hill? Yep. OK, go over that and down to the river, then we'll be flying along the river for a bit. See that next tree? Yep, we see it. That great big one that sticks out of the hillside? Yep. You see it, do you, that tree right ahead of us? Yep, we see it. You're sure you see it? Course we are! You're sure you see that great damn enormous tree? Yes, of course we're sure!

Great, glad you see it, cause I bloody didn't, did I?

on a different point, how do you open CDs?


Carefully and slowly with fingernail, or failing that, a kitchen knife - see my earlier posting!!   Grin

How do you get the Damn Things Out?
We begin by making an incision along the junction of the dorsal and anterior faces, from the superior anterior dorsal edge to the inferior anterior dorsal edge

I do in fact use a scalpel: I started using these things in the days when I was copying music onto transparency, to scratch out mistakes. Now I use them for ... er ... opening CDs and ... making cardboard models (my shameful secret).

Bless you Opilec!

I also make paper models from time to time. I got bogged down working on a Hiigaran cruiser for my son. Embarrassed



Everything went fairly well (even without detailed instructions) until I got to the engines. I managed to piece together the "fangs" on the bow, and even the bridge / control tower on the starboard side, but there are seven engine nozzles and it's a case of guess which goes where. I've even tried dry assemblies without making sense of it.

Just supposing we do get as far as getting the damn thing out using finger-nail, blade, end of ballpoint pen, scissors, teeth, Swiss Army knife, silver toothpick, kitchen knife, scalpel, winkle picker, box cutter and circular saw, any tips on how to remove and replace the liner notes without getting them snagged, torn and crumpled up on those horrid little stubby things that clamp them in place?
Sorry, been out of this for a couple of days, but the easiest way when (as often happens) your fingernail keeps wanting to go between pages 2 and 3 of the booklet rather than between the front of the booklet and the plastic case is to try at the other end instead: grab at the stapled end of the booklet and bend slightly to slide out at the hinge side of the cover (you'll probably need the thing lying open at a near-180° angle to do this).
