Sun came out today so tried a short walk to the woods/pond down the road - spotted last of the wild damsons so picked/shook a load for when young Emma comes to visit next weekend - she loves crumble !! Started putting up bubble wrap in the greenhouse ready for the silly season but only ghot 1/4 way through before realising I`m not THAT fit yet !!
Venison haunch steak with redcurrant & red wine glaze tonight,pommes Anna and sauteed spring greens - at least my appetite is back !!!!

Interesting - never had a "computer" scam like that - I`m a great fan of Norton/Symantec anyhow and between us we keep the darn thing working sweetly - I get more hassle from IE9 and the Microsoft "nanny" brigade than from outsiders.
Anyone who wants to steal my overdraft is more than welcome to try John.

PS since I started on this I have been called 3 times this afternoon - 1x CO2 offset trading,1x Fine Wine investment and 1x Land Banking - busy little day !!!

TPS and MOPS are for the UK but it doesn`t work

Having worked for 4 years on telesales ( frozen food company accounts )I am somewhat sympathitic,and as a gentleman I refuse to be overly rude ( I know all the words,I don`t have to use them ! ).My patience is sorely tried by the bucket shop,landbanking,sharedealing,fine wine,CO2 selling,accident recompense,double glazing,loft insulation,mis-sold payment protection scammers though..................I have opted out of phone calls and mail order and removed myself from the electoral rolls - to no avail - complete waste of time really. I am sorely tempted to be rude but to what end ? Many of these people are "furriners",many very badly trained,and mostly out of touch with what they are doing.Some I string along as it helps spend their phone bills,some I will listen and decline,often we get the "dead line" as they use an auto dialler and don`t pick me.Occasionally there is a recorded message.
nd to add insult to injury , I have had the same mobile number for 9 years with Virgin and never had a spam text - just changed to Orange ( same number ) and had at least 5 in the first 4 months ???????

Hi Doc - apparently a precaution for the side effects of the chemo and the Zoledronic acid infusions - your wishes are greatly appreciated as have all the others been - doubt if it will improve my photography though maybe weightlifting is an option to consider !!

Tony
