Label says www.pottsar.co.uk but that site is not fully up and running.
Address and e-mail address is available though and I've mailed you
privately.

Called "Star Bomb", about 3ft tall and retailing at £29.99.


Thanks, Bob. No email from you, though. Too much spam clogging up the
works, I think! How it is that ISPs claim to run spam filters I do not
know.

Orange/wanadoo's spam filter work very well.

I cleared over 1000 pieces out of my mailbox the other day. Time to
change the email addy, I think.

or use a mail tool like Thunderbird or Agent that you can very quickly
train

Or SpamSieve for a Mac :-)

Sacha has got a new shiny Windows PC.

I don't think so ...
Don't be misled by her use of Microsoft-Entourage.

Yeah and despite that I've told you the download site of the OS X version of
Thunderbird. :))

I'll check that out

I believe it's possible to install MS Windows on your new PC.

Could be but I'm not fiddling with this shiny new toy unless the Guru says I
