    Ooh a mystery! Brilliant. Most exciting thread of the year... certainly beats the fake one about buyers wanting to bury a dog in the garden...!!!!

    I have to say a little part of me wonders if it is in a similar mould. I hope it is, for the bones's sake as much as anything else.

    I've read his threads before, when he learnt how to cook.... doesn't seem to me to be the story-telling type.

    mrbadexample is a good fella and very funny. He lives not too far from me.

    I have been ill for a couple of days. Still not right.

    I haven't eaten since lunchtime thursday. I'm absolutely starving, but at the same time, can't face food! One of the wierdest feelings I've ever had. I still feel absolutely terrible.

    Have played bowls last weekend, and this one. Won both games, though the team lost last weekend. We managed a draw this weekend, even though we didn't have a full team.
    It's getting harder & harder to keep the government in the manner to which they have become accustomed.

    Ah, this is nuts. Lost the thread as the connection won't connect/load. So having to start again and load it, so I can load the 2nd pic.

    I really, really, really need a proper PC and proper Internet. It really stops me doing anything I want. A slow connection means you never achieve what you set out to achieve as it becomes so deathly slow that you get distracted or give up.

    I have never heard of giff gaff. No idea about networks and piggy backing.

    Three is the only one that gets a semi decent signal here. It had its issues early last year (I lost the service on about 8 separate days across one month) - and I bought an O2 dongle to use, but that was really really dire, worse than this now is. Three upgraded the equipment up the road and it's been great for about 6+ months, well, not as fast as proper broadband, but mostly usable.

    Nobody else provides a good signal here - and you can't actually tell how good a signal is until you've plugged it in.... by which time you've driven 100 miles to find the dongle for sale and spent money on fuel, parking and buying a dongle that's worse than the last.

    The pics are not that good, nor important now, PN. I think they will go pretty quickly once the mods get onto this.

    As I said on the other forum, my Greenfingered reaction would have been to consider my garden first, but then my Property Owning hat told me something else altogether...:eek:

    I do feel sorry for XXXX. As LJ says, he's a good bloke and unlikely to pull a stunt. While his find may help others, it sure isn't going to help him, unless these bones prove to be historic, which seems unlikely from where I'm sitting. :(
