Better put the shotgun away, Keygrip, there's few enough in here as it is!

And it appears that some of them obviously were trying to get into JB but missed!

How much grovelling?

Oops, sorry about that. No excuses. I was sober. (Maybe that was the problem). How much grovelling is required?
I guess that cancels out the positives I'd been slowly building up..........

I'm starting to get worried about Keygrip's lurking in here..... first of all he comes in and steals the hugs - next he wants to shoot one of our rare visitors.....

Could it be that Keygrip is a Geek Wannabe ?

Maybe I'm a Saab groupie?

I assure you I'm not into geeky stuffs - now leave me alone whilst I Bluetooth my iPhone to the Hi-Def DVD player that's plugged into the 42" LCD via an HDMI cable.

I could put more hugs to good use though. Anybody spare a cuddle?

Consider yourself hugged.

Now, about that television - did it work?

Back from France now. It was dead easy (but don't tell my sister-in-law). On the initial setup page there was a select country option. It all worked OK. However, as you all know, French TV is rubbish. OK for use with the DVD player though. An extra question- when I write up this reply the paragraphs disappear. How do I keep the paragraphs?

One way that normally works, Mike, is to 'preview post' (where you will see the format gone!) then re-enter the para breaks, and this seems to stick. I think it has been discussed before.

You have to pay extra for paragraphs.

Seriously, there could be a problem with AdBlock and NoScript if they are configured too aggressively.

Other than that, usual advice about removing cookies and clearing browser cache.

They always told me you were a mean and nasty old man.
