Oops, I got so caught up in working out ways to tragic demise (Richard,  ) I forgot to reply to Anna. I went through the Tools, Options stuff with Virgin via the `phone, four flippin` times . I suspect she didn`t know what she was doing, apart from reading from a script. Outlook Express won`t recognise my server name but I`ve just realised that my username is the one I was originally given, not the one I`ve chosen. Even though I`d changed it via the Virgin imbecile I was doing all this with. Arghhhh! If I haven`t made sense above, umm, well, I haven`t. I plead overexposure to Virgin  |

If you were really desperate, one might be able to design a special edifice for you to leap from - a mortification, of course. (Though I sincerely hope that it never comes to that.)

Sympathies, Mort. Nothing is so mind-bogglingly frustrating as technology.
The postman has just been. On Sunday. ("It's the backlog, you see".) I have, being a virtuous person, removed the polythene wrappers from 18 catalogues, all unasked for, so I can dump them in the recycling bin.

Mort, The Eagle has Landed. Your email worked, I shall treasure it forever and might even flog it on e-bay as the first email that Mort sent once she realised what her name was |

We have a Christmas lunch. All quite sedate apart from the year I ...... well we won't go into that!
The most embarrassing year was when the Partners dressed up as The Village People to perform YMCA and the karaoke machine wasn't functioning. That is an vision that lives in my memory.
Since then it's finished about 4pm (thank goodness)
Oh Buglar, just realised I posted this on the wrong thread <doh>

Your email worked, I shall treasure it forever and might even flog it on e-bay as the first email that Mort sent once she realised what her name was Well now I`m truly baffled. Mr Outlook Express might have kindly sent my mail but he still screams abuse and waves insulting boxes of rejection at me when I step over the doorstep. Oh bah! Pass me the hazelnut clusters  |

Pass me the hazelnut clusters Mort, once again you baffle me. I got yours, I replied to yours, but your address did not have a Virgin in it. Are you really sure you have set things up correctly? Anty sighs and heads off to the kitchen to supervise the re-heating of the beef and the peeling of the sprouts whilst muttering ......... "First it's her wheelie bins, now it's Outlook Express ....... what next? And she knows I do hate those hazlenut clusters, it's coffee cremes or nothing for me" |

Cheers Mort, they will go down nicely after me beef and SPROUTS, Oh from one who thought they were Spawn of The Devil to one who now venerates them and believes their price is beyond Rubies.
Mind you, that Ruby ........... Ain't nowt she'd do for a sprout

OMIGOD Jonathan, you are just SO cool. Robert Rankin (I had to watch I had entered that correctly!) and he did Sprout Mask Replica, which of course led me to my cd of Captain Beefheart and Trout Mask Replica.
It's them dimples ..... can't be beat! They is neat:D
