Fell hard, gravity caused it. I always wondered about your name.

Sympathy to both of you. I had my leg in plaster recently, and it's amazingly disabling. Your hands are on the crutches, and you can't do anything.

So, as chief nurse, you're in for a busy few weeks.

Thinking about the discrepancy of numbers logged in, at the moment I find a variance of two, not one. Very often it's a measure of "active users within the last five minutes" with forums, so that may have more to do with it than anonymous users.

A thought that hopefully lives up to the ethos of this particular thread!
Perhaps an anonymous user logged in twice?

George - given the choice I would be back in Tanzania like a shot. However it's his birthday and his choice.

By the time I reach that ripe old age we will be poverty stricken and I'll be lucky to have a day out to celebrate it. I did hint last year for my 55th but he didn't bite .
You're a woman. I am sure you can arrange for him to think that Tanzania is his choice!

Good luck.

I'm glad you took my post as intended, and I am glad you will be able to remember your university years. Sounds as though you'll have some good blackmail material.

Good luck with your search.

Roads? Roads? There were no roads, our Chris. A few drovers' paths over t'mountains, and the odd track through t'mire, but roads, no. We wasn't in some soft Soothern ivory tower, we wasn't. It were hard graft oop North where we was, it were.

His Nibs is 65 next March. He wants to celebrate with a family holiday. Due to school and work that means Mid February.
So either another cold holiday, or travelling a long way for a warm one. Not sure southern Spain or Portugal will be warm enough then. You just can't tell.
No matter what, with 8 adults and 2 kids, it will be expensive. We will be paying the bulk of it no doubt. A final fling before penury.

Found a nice villa in Florida for a good price, but can't get a quote for flights without dealing with someone in person, since we count as group travel. Not sure I want to go as far as Florida just for a week any way.

Luckily I have a bit of time to puzzle it out.

Probably just end up with a meal out .
Leave six adults and the kids behind, and have a proper holiday. East Africa, if you haven't been there before. Short time difference, and the flight isn't too horrendous.

The last shall be first, Bernard. In the end, you will be at the beginning.

They sit in the outbox until the recipient reads them. Then they go to the sent box.

Not very obvious.

I don't spend my time counting! There are six rows and 5 columns on the page. So if the site says 30 are logged in, the first page should be full.

But you are probably right about someone logging in anonymously.
