Now, I have slashed and burned some of the posts in this thread (without fear or favour, I might add) as the thing was getting out of control in the past 24 hours without any sign of the autopilot's being engaged ...
Let's all take a Bex, please, have a nice cup of tea and a 30 minute lie down, and come back with more sensible Tech Log attitudes to life ...
My apologies to those whose humorous retorts I have slashed but I try to be scrupulous to the point of ruthlessness in these sorts of circumstances ...
I shall take an extremely dim view if anyone were to go back into my handiwork and vary things .. anyone has any beef with what is left of the earlier posts, please let me know by PM and we can think about it ..
Guys and gals .. Tech Log is not for this sort of infantile nonsense ... plenty of places elsewhere where folks can let their hair down a bit if that's the sort of thing which revs you up a tad ..
Point taken. In the best tradition of Maxwell Smart...
"Sorry about that!"
