At long long last; contact with the outside world!
« on: December 08, 2012, 02:07:13 PM »
Hello to all & sundry   ;D

 At very long last I have my internet back! After twenty weeks (31st July-7th December) during which time Virgin totally messed up both my phone & internet, effectively cutting me off from the outside world, we now (finally) are with Orange despite them taking no less than three attempts to send the broadband router (all of which got lost in the post, apparently). Fortunately the fourth one got through yesterday and so here I am today....

 Those needing replies to missives over the past four months will get them in due course over the coming week as I wade through the backlog of emails, computer updates, ICR mainfile updates, and four months of missed posts on the forum!

 It's good to be back!   8)

 I'm always having to please myself. I think it's my lifestyle...   ;D  ;D  ;D

 My kingpin inclination is still about 40 degrees but it's too cold to do anything about that at the moment. (ooh, titter ye not!) Come the spring I'll be back out there having a bash at it, so I might well make use of you yet Bob. I'm still yet to get onto Andy for a little chat about the rear end (Go on, let's see the Frankie Howard impersonations on that!) so all stand down til the warmer weather. (Missus!)   ;D  :-*

Was I wrong? The discussion can only veer toward the FHesqe, if your neutral. I deliberately did not use use OPU for the expected answering message but you stole my line. Damn rotter. Oh, sorry that was Terry Thomas.

Apologies for my humour, its winter, its dark, its cold and I need something to cheer me up till the sun starts coming back to play.
