Just found out that the Vista on my Laptop has a Spellcheck facility at the top of the page, for any text you're typing, even on sites like this! Another example of me slowly catching up with the technical age!Alan

She might be lost. She might be confused. She might be about to buy you a present of a bottle of Cruz Ruby. Hence somebody must check up on her.
