This tip comes courtesy of *Fuzzy* Feeling's son or daughter (not sure who!)........When Googling....if you just want to see pictures of the thing you are googling (can you tell this is in my own words? lol).......Click the word IMAGES immediately above the google search box. Then you get to do an Image Search. Brilliant! I'd never noticed it before!!! Merry xx

Google image search is also good fun when you've nothing better to do and are feeling in a bit of a silly mood. Type in a random word or phrase and see what comes up. This was what I got for 'banana': http://www.ph(.)unimelb(.)edu(.)au/~ywong/bananas/devil.gif
