    I'd worked out we may have just reached 100,000 late tonight/early hours tomorrow, and guess what the site is shut from 2300 to 0100 for maintenance. :mad:

    Hi Olivia -I'm signing off but perhaps you could negotiate with Africanman and explain that we "didn't mean" any of it?

    Not me, honest! I haven't time for such japes!

    How cool is this: Have had 300 francs sitting around for quite a few years. Just checked with the Banque de France website and the Delacroix 100 F note can still be exchanged for euros, but only until the end of January. My daughter is over there for a few days next week. Kerching!!!! Thought that was £45 well and truly lost.

    OK, not earth-shattering, but it's a bit like finding £45 on the pavement!
