I still prefer the taste of crunchy nut but I might stick to shreddies for a bit because i will need a few more eureka moments if i am going to get anywhere with issue 2. :roll:

Fernando found out the result of the Christmas quiz today, although he still hasn't been given the answers. He's feeling quite pleased with himself!

Hmmm. I wonder if there was an issue with the host server that meant that several forum postings got lost somewhere?
I am taking regular back-ups myself, but not often enough to catch things like that.

Oh, and congratulations from me too.
