Another annoying thing, with all the technology that we have, why can't they get the voice over on adverts to match, especially on cleaning products.
They must really think us public are quite gullible, very unprofessional.

Ah Compo, I'm not sure how I missed that post, hope your delicate pinkies are better now.
Di The drainpipe thing comes fom a Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Song. Its about wanting to keep your anoying neighbous at bay, "It's my pink half of the drainpipe, I may paint it blue." You don't see drainpipes painted like that very much these days.

Weed my dear freind, that will be one thing we won't be doing, getting rid of you that is.
Dear Alan, a revitalised Old Herbaceous, that sounds rather scary even to me.

On opening a new Two West and Elliott catalogue this morning, i nearly jumped out of my boots.
There peering out of the pages, was our very own, freindly Steve Ott.
Gets about a bit, doesn't he.

Dear Alan, i don't know if you can help, but do you know if Rhydfallen Ganol means anything, it is the name of a farm if this helps, thanks.

'Pnawn da OH
Are you sure the spelling's correct?
I reckon it's Rhydafallen Ganol
In which case it's
RHYD = Ford
AFALLEN = Appletree
CANOL = Middle
MIDDLE APPLETREE FORD
Farms were often divided into Uchaf = Upper and Isaf = Lower. The one between was Canol (or Ganol feminine)
Welsh lesson for the day

Dear Alan, thankyou for your reply.
I've sent you a P.M, but it wouldn't let me send it through AOL, kept getting our annoying error 403 coming up, so sent it via IE.
I wonder if this is the same for just the people who are getting this problem, as i can P.M everybody else that i have tried.

Just been watching Antiques roadshow that was from St Georges hall in Liverpool, and i'm sure i spotted our own Grockie and Lizzie, although i could be wrong as there was a lot of antiques about.
