Oh, that's annoying, Milly.
It's dark and cold, and I'm only just beginning to get warm. Unlike Milly, I don't keep the heating on at night. I still prefer it to summer. It's easier to get warm than it is to get cool.
This isn`t really a grump, more of a pathetic whine really. It`s cold, windy and overcast. I need to go to the local shop but am loathe to clamber out of my cosy PJs and comforting dressing gown. I know, I`m a wuiss  More of a proper grump is that I have realised that I will have to copy my address book over to Virgin, entry by entry, because I now can`t access Outlook Explorer to actually do anything in it  Mutter grumble. Shiver. |

Alas Maestro, I have no central heating  Or even an open fireplace with gently burning logs. Just a couple of feeble storage heaters. Sigh |

Quite dark here, raining, windy, not as cold as it has been last couple of days.
Mort, why can't you access Outlook Express?

When I was first married we lived in a massive (but cheap!) flat at the top of a Georgian house. There was, I remember, one storage heater at one end of the 35-foot, high-ceilinged sitting room, and no heating at all anywhere else. It was a long icy sprint to the loo at the end of the huge bathroom. I've got less space now, but more warmth!

Hows about not clambering out of them but adding several more layers on top culminating in an overcoat? No one would know what was going on underneath. |

Anna, I can access it but I can`t do anything once I`m in there, apart from view e mails. It won`t accept my new username and password, even though it has been set up, repeatedly(grrr) via the Virgin helpline. So I appear to be, er, stuffed. Yes, that`s the word |

You are a genius  What a cunning wheeze. I will put it into practice tomorrow, (having already clambered out of the aforementioned night attire to purchase the Sunday paper). Brrr. |

Mort, what about if you go into Switch Identities or New Account Sign Up?? Have you tried that? George, good thinking, who's to know what is under that voluminous overcoat?  |

Mort, before you hurl yourself off the battlements, have you gone into Tools, Options and set the account up properly? Perhaps you should check that out?

Unfortunately, both the lifts and the escalators to the battlements are currently closed owing to essential maintenance and improvement works. Until 9 October 2008, damsels are asked either to use the stairs or to use alternative routes to tragic demise. CASTLES FOR LONDON - Earning our Keep |

I would throw myself on my asp but it`s gone into hibernation somewhere. As for swallowing hot coals, that`s just squandering the resources of Mother Earth. Maybe I could throw myself on my pickle fork ..... |
