I've been really busy at work today where if it could go wrong it did. One of the more alarming aspects of my computer problems was when my auto text got stuck somehow and plastered across my screen were the words

"Chantal N Stiborski - Press to Enter" :shock:

This was there for a good five hours, no matter what I did. Then all my symbols got mixed up so when I pressed £ I got # and when I pressed # I got / it was crazy. All OK now, although heaven knows why.

No damage from the wind in my demesne so I guess I got away with it this time.

Malk, you do confuse me talking about Seedling as I have visions of our forum Seedling lying down for a nappy change. As I know her well this is very scary :shock:

today i am recovering from the gail force winds we had yesterday.came out of work at 1.30 and got onto Shiel road when a big gust of wind whipped me feet from under me and i fell flat on me arse then rolled down the road just like a piece of tumble weed until some kind man who had attatched himself to a railing,so as not to get blown away ,stuck his leg out to stop me rolling any futher :oops:
the 27 bus was going past at the time :oops: so i got up just in time to see everyone p...ing themselves laughing.
THANK GOD FOR N.H.S TROUSERS :oops: OR THEY ALL WOULD HAVE BEEN VIOLENTLY SICK :shock:
Love you lots like Jelly Tots

For once I found being overweight to be a bonus or I'd have gone the same way yesterday. I was wearing backless trainers and nearly got blown out of them when I was standing on a slope unable to move 'cos the wind was so strong. Are you OK Grock?

I started picking up the broken glas today about five stacker boxes full at the moment, the stuff is everhwhere. Compo got some work on in the next few weeks if I am gonna get going in time for a good allotment. But like you grock I am trying to laugh.

PS Anyone know who sung the son ' I love the sound of breaking glass'? I will think of a suitable prize for the first one to post the right reply.
