Reckon I may have the same keyboard as you Boaty ;-)

[waterboatman]

It's got a gremlin that mover the keys about while I'm typing. I'll catch the little git one of these days.

Last century I used to enjoy arriving at work early, on the odd occasion, and removing keys from peoples computors and plonking them back in different places. It made no difference to the ladies, they didn't look at the keyboard, but the "one finger typist" fellas used to scratch their heads, then go right off ;-)

[waterboatman]

arf arf arf I like it! Just goes to show the girls have us beaten hands down there mate.

[waterboatman]

Coffee time. Back in a tick.

[1ozzy]

Good that your wheels will last another year.
Spent lots on Mrs Ozzys car this year, it's getting on a bit in life, traveled nearly 300,000 ks but is in remarkably good nick. So it will be a family member for a few more years, hopefully.

[1ozzy]

I wonder which mug is being used ;-)

[waterboatman]

Guess! ;o}

My trundlebuggy is 2002 Vauxhall Astra. 84k on the clock. It's in very good nick. It's only fault is the boot isn't big enough. It's comfortable on long journeys, On the weekend in Cornwall I did over 400 miles in total.

[1ozzy]

We used to own a Holden Astra back in the early nineties, great little car, but having four kids changed the sort of wheels we required.
Our local butcher is selling a 2005 Astra, can't interest a young male Aussie in it though, not "manly" enough for him ;-/

Silly sod, it would be perfect, apart from the image.

It's a very popular car here. youngsters like them. Parents like them for their youngsters too. Mines an automatic, it's rather hilly around here and it's great! :o}

There is a young lady I know. She's a natural blond about 5' tall, looks about 15, very pretty. She drives a minibus for her 5 children! yes, she is married, the children are delightful, well mannered and well behaved.
