but Morris kept pulling away - I think he was trying to say .....

I know a local authority College which insists that all it's students have to matriculate even for a 5 week course

Result - they have full Student status and can get things like Photoshop at silly student prices . After all their student status is for a full academic year

Tempting for next September

Gareth - I feel your pain

I dare not add up what I've paid out for the sitting room and kitchen . The last straw was the new Boiler [ and of course the labour fitting it ]

Just been laughing like a drain after my sister-in-law dropped in and said she was worried in case she had to get a new boiler - she reckoned it would cost her about £1k

Her house is HUGE compared with mine and old and the heating system is equally old and inefficient . I told her to triple the £1k and she nearly had a heart attack , and I have to say I don't think that will cover her 7 room house !

Superb

Works on a Mac with Safari

well - firing Bud like that is the best thing you can do with it - hopefully the landing impact will damage the can so it explodes

Our spotty dog never bothered his shirt about fireworks either - he would either just look up , sort of sigh and go back to sleep , as if to say " gawd not again " or he would go over to the window , then ask to be let out into the garden and just watch .

He really was a stoooopid hound

Nope - dare not - but clearly my avatar is not me

Well - if you come up for the Glasgow Meet you've a chance of finding out

I'll do what I can about that Gwyn - believe me I will

These last few months have really been problematical for me - Life has been really tough and I've been unable to get out much .

My confidence has vanished - the K-x is sitting there with its new 35mm lens on ready for use - but I lack the will power to go out and use it .

Hopefully once better weather is here I'll put it in the bag and once again get out and enjoy myself.

My aim is to wander round Glasgow again and take views of the City that few see - the skyline and the glorious architecture - then hopefully a few trips abroad [ though after the dosh that has had to be spent I dunno where the money will come from ], but I need to learn to live again
