You're not waffling enough...Take time to consider the weather, then comment on the scrumptious crumpets you had for breakfast, in a round about way tell them that the answer isn't that difficult, revealing the answer as an off-the-cuff remark. It's the British way....

My goodness. I didn't realise you had put quite so many up online. Make it a worthwhile landmark. (8+)

It helps having a twitchy shutter finger and carrying a camera with me everywhere. Now, let's think about what would make a suitable subject for the 1000th image I upload...

I bought a document on eBay with details of how to win tons on online casino websites. I have made over £200.00 this evening  Peter.

You mean the ones you can get for free by searching or looking on the moneysavingexpert forums?

Probably, but for £0.49 it was worth every penny. £212.00 is going back onto my card tomorrow  I remember the first time I was speaking to my Mum about eBay and told her how I "won" a digital camera. She was over the moon thinking eBay was a whole new competition website. Parents, eh? Peter.

I want to go visit Bletchley Park again, as I haven't been for a good few years. Maybe take the camera(s) too. Edd

I started the creation of a new boot environment (BE) this afternoon at around 4pm. It's still doing it now...There is around 36GB of info, plus new filesystems and mirrors to get right, but it's taking bloomin' ages! I've still got to upgrade the new BE yet, and that's supposed to take two or more hours! Once I've updated the new BE I can reboot into it and I have a nice upgraded OS, if it doesn't work, or if software doesn't like it, I have the old BE to revert back to...Fingers crossed it'll be ready for a reboot sometime this week
