My bad, Don. Yep, could be a do-it-all woman with a house full of kids, a dog, a cat, bills to pay, a job to attend, perhaps even worse, a divorcee who came into an ill-fated marriage as an orphan and is now left to fend for herself without kith or kin for support. Now I'm feeling like a sh-t-heel. Happy with what you've undone, Don!

My pleasure. Cheers.

I suddenly realised that what I wrote might be thought offensive and wasn't particularly funny...

...so: Plink!

The "Top Secret Distinguished Guest" at the Latest Membership Request spot at the bottom of the main page seems promising. Or maybe I didn't notice that yesterday.

You're right, Andrew. I heard from Alex. He had MAJOR technical difficulties with his Internet provider.

You mean the Beelzebots have got him? What must we do to be saved?

Ann, he has defeated the Beelzebots. He always does.

But - what about their mothers...?

Ann, based on your comment above, I am ever hopeful that you submitted a translation of Beowulf (in its entirety, of course).

Of course I did. That's probably what's crashed Alex's system.
