As Alan says,it allows you to have that thread stored in 'your threads only'. So when you add to a thread you are bookmarking/nudging all in one. Glen

Im sitting here in what sounds like an aircraft hangar, the pc is so loud, so just jumping in here now and then. But it just shows you Val - et tu Glen?

Heather the trouble is you arent strict enough, you really must give him something to do while you are away, idle fingers make light work and all that stuff.

Yes, youre probably right, I mean I have delayed the appointment of young Mr Owen as Glens underling until Merry returns from hols. But Glen is seriously out of hand now. It started with him wandering about and finding his way on to General a week or so ago and now he just seems to have lost any sense of boundaries both physical and mental. As soon as I get pc sorted I shall take him in hand when Merry returns and give him the discipline he needs to get him into order.
