    I've just spent an age ensuring the files are all in apple-pie order, printing out a small supply of stationery, plus an instruction sheet and list of useful email addresses, to start the new chap off, and putting all the templates he'll need in a nice, tidy folder on my USB flash drive - if he brings a flash drive to our meeting, I can just copy it all across, simpler than emailing all the separate templates. I've suggested that Mr LW phone him to set up time and place, as he'll have to come along with me.:o

    Bathroom is sparkly, too, so I haven't neglected my scheduled Flying.;)

    Or send it all to a zip file and e mail him that. Check what MS Office you're both running BTW - I'm running a newer one here than I am at work and while I can open work-created files at home I can't open home-created files at work IF I haven't saved them as 'old' word;):o I remember EVERYTIME to save them as 'old' word:p;)(not)

    got some GUAG from somewhere. I'm going to finish the decorating!

    DS wants to go and visit Birmingham Uni on Saturday because it's an open day. 'Get a postcode', says I, 'then we know where to go'
    'Just go to Birmingham and look for a sign...'
    and THIS from a child who just passed his theory test.

    Am attempting to get over to him that Birmingham is BIG.
    Ironically I know where ASTON uni is!
