Who knows, it may even allow you to live a little longer.
Just don't get your "Knickers in a twist".
A very relaxed Leighton.
Och, Leighton..........where's the fun in that
We all need a good moan now and then, I need to come and do it here as my wife has heard it all before

Re: Language
Dispatch, despatch.
I always thought despatch was used like "mentioned in despatches" and dispatch was to send out.
Apparently not according to t'interpipe. Both mean the same. A spelling and grammar error we don't have to worry about!
