Thanks all for the sympathy.  Will have to decide what to do about it.  He pleaded ignorance: "I thought it all cost the same from our phone..."

If he wasn't doing GCSEs just now...

(and if he wasn't about 7 inches taller than me...)   Undecided

He's 7 inches tallerthan you?  Obvious punishment - he has to clean the ceilings for a week.

Good idea, Tommo!

Actually, I sometimes think I'm 7 inches shorter than him...    Cheesy

Rationing was (just) still on when I was born (or so I'm told...) and I was 5th kid out of a family of 6 in the queue for the trough.

Hmmph, kids today don't know they're born.

Course, when I were a girl (and GCSEs weren't even thought of) we were supposed to know about practical things like bus timetables and electricity meters. And things.

A good way to save money on the phone bill is to join up to 18866...dont ask me how it works, but you sign up online, and provided you dial 18866 before the number you're calling, you save loads of money - particularly useful if phoning abroad, or UK calls during the day. A little voice comes on and tells you how much per minute it is costing....I have used it for the past year and saved lots of dosh.

Oh bugler bugler bugler!!  Another flying varmint decided to snack on my other hand yesterday. Result?
Hand
I can`t even bend the fingers. Grrrr. One handed dressing this morning was fun. One handed typing is s--l--o--w. If anyone fancies frying an egg, my hand is available for breakfasts and barmitvahs . Mutter, mutter, grumble ...... Roll Eyes

Task for the day: research ways to tie a reef knot, one-handed, while whistling cheerfully under water.

(I really am sorry about your hand, Mort. I went through something similar when I thrust my hand unthinkingly (now there's glory for you!) into an oven mitt where waspie had curled up for forty winks.)

That's nasty. Sounds like you need some pampering. I hope you can get some.

I want to join the sore hand briagde, I was breaking concrete at the weekend using a hammer and chisel and it took to long so I held the chisel in my hand and got angry with the offending lump of concrete.  I think i've jarred all the joints in my right hand, it just makes moving it a bit difficult (although I did play Liszt's Prelude and Fugue on BACH last night so that probably added to it)

Best regards,
Jonathan
