    Thanks SDW - I'd be honoured to be no. 12. How do I add that to the end of my messages - not very techno minded.

    Hi - I'm retired and after parting with some money to my children I'm planning to SKI in style. A world cruise is on the horizon and I'm going to visit places I've only dreamed of. Life's too short and while I can, I plan to travel. Even if I can't remember where I've been when my mind goes, I'll enjoy it while I can.

    Click on 'User CP ' under where it says 'welcome MerryWidow'.
    Then at the side under 'Settings and Options' click on 'Edit Signature'.
    Put 'number 12 of SKI-ers' Club' or something similar in the box.
    Save.
    Done!

    Imagine someone holding forth on biology whose only knowledge of the subject is the Book of British Birds, and you have a rough idea of what it feels like to read Richard Dawkins on theology: Terry Eagleton

    Oh, heck! I haven't officially joined! Do I need references?

    Merrywidow, all systems go now, eh? Good news bout your DH, margaret.

    We're just back from a few days in Bath. Cant believe we've not been before as it's a lovely place.

    Went to see The Tempest with Anthony Sher as Prospero. Ok, but not the best I'v seen. ( Pete Postlethwaite in The Royal Exchange, Manchester last year was wonderful)

    You don't have to officially join, it's just that Mery Widow has been posting for ages as a SKA-ter I thought she might want to!

    If you do want to join, it'll be number 13!

    Thanks SDW - I had never bothered to rummage around, I was too busy gassing. Thanks for the tips. Will you come and sort out my new mobile phone, new house phone, new negatives to PC thingy............just kidding. I learn how to switch things on and lose interest.
