It is a good start snoopcester Send a noteboard - 22/03/2010 03:01:08 PM
Hopefully actually having had the major bill go through will mean people will be kicked into working together to sort it out properly, rather than trying to kill it without offering a sensible alternative.

My definition of most is obviously quite defective. Brian - 22/03/2010 08:05:22 PM 797 Views
As long as you define "most" as "some time" you're just fine with it as it stands *NM* Floffe - 22/03/2010 08:15:03 PM 357 Views
I'd say "most" people would agree with my definition of "most" in my original post.... Brian - 23/03/2010 05:16:59 AM 870 Views
