Somehow I have managed to mess up my Desktop. It should have a Bar at the bottom with 'Start' at the left end. I currently have a Bar running down the right side of my Screen with 'Start' at the top. How can I return it to its proper place?

You can usually click on it and drag it back into position. Cheers, Horatia

I checked out the executions site Jim, brilliant. I didnt expect my lot on there, they were all angels. Does anyone know what the crime of uttering was? Is it treason or something?

yes, great site grampa Jim! Heather, uttering = forgery From the national archives of Scotland index of legal terms: 'Forgery (also: Uttering forged writings) Forgery per se is not a crime. The crime is uttering, i.e. using as genuine a fabricated writing falsely intended to pass as genuine the writing of another person.'

Uttering meant issuing counterfeit money and was considered to be High Treason as it was a crime against against the Royal prerogative of minting money. Petty Treason was killing your Husband or other 'Superior' being.
