Atlantis - I am forever indebted to you for the leaked letters and documents you supplied back in the day. I might lurk over Christmas as I have an extended break and won't be travelling anywhere for a few weeks.
Stan - Nugget now has 5 stents in her arteries, after a few heart issues but all is well with her now.
Phizzy, yes mate same address. Moving is too much like hard work, and now the hovel is fully bought and paid for I don't want another Mortgage :) (I'll send you a PM).
Balaamass2 - No one else has left as far as I know, except by leaving the land of the living, which seems to be happening a lot recently, I think death has been following me around the last couple of years. I am still hoping that my nephews might leave, but they would be in their 20's now and the last I heard they were toeing the line.
Hoser - Thank you, it's good to see that some of the old guard are still here. It's frightening to think I first posted here nearly 15 years ago ...... where does the time go????
