Hi all,
Thought i'd hijack Vickys thread for a moment to say hi as i'm also
from Worthing. Some of you I already know from 3ait (you know who you
are).
Will try and make a moot at some point but Thursdays are quite tricky
for me (you'll only throw things at me for being a fedora/redhat user
anyway)
Anyway you can have your thread back now Vicky.
Sean
