Control yourself Janet! I've heard things about people going out of
control on Internet auctions :-)

Do you use a software tool to do the bidding?

I use Gixen - very handy if you're not around at the last few moments
of bidding.

was in Aylesbury at the Armed Forces day Ticket lasunch so lost the
auction ....................


Sorry Spider, will keep on looking - probably outbid by some newsgroup
follower :)

I know that using last-minute bids is a popular tactic, but it is
not the only way.

All you need to do is decide what your maximum bid is to be, and
declare that. ebay then bids automatically (if needed) until your
limit is reached.

The advantages are that you don't need to be glued to your screen
as the auction closing time approaches, and you are not tempted
to increase the bid beyond your predetermined limit.

Amazon is behaving oddly. I got an e-mail from Amazon that a new book

months later than planned. They suggested I should cancel the order.
Three days later the book was delivered.

Well, thanks for trying, Janet, and for your kind offer, regardless of
how it turned out. I shall keep looking, too. I'm stuck indoors atm
with an horrendous cold and chest infection :~((. If I find St.Geoff's
progs before you do, I will let you know and offer you a viewing, of
course. Unlike you, I read/view things more than once so tend to hoard,
but a loan for viewing purposes could easily be arranged:~).

You have my sympathy. I'm still getting over the same, it's taken for
ever to go.
It came with a very rough throat for which I gargled with soluble
aspirin as they are an anaesthetic, but found that the original Bechams
powders are even better as a gargle.

Poor both of you! David had a very special Devon cold, though, probably
known for its tenacious properties. ;-( Hope you're both on the mend
as the sun struggles through.

Thank you, David. This is my third cold and second chest infection this
year, so I'm really fed up. I missed my Hypochondriacs Anonymous
meeting last month, so you can imagine how rough I feel. Seeing the Doc
tomorrow for antibiotics, but I can't have Penicillin any more so it
should be interesting. I think I'll try the Beechams gargle (my
throat's raw now), but I'm wary of aspirin due to my asthsma. Thanks
for the suggestion. Hope you're feeling a lot better now.

Thank you, Sacha. I'm determined to get better before the sun returns.
We've got cloud and occasional rain atm, although it's 9*C outside,
which is an improvement on last month.
Should I gather that David caught his cold at Hill House?

I'd been coughing non-stop night and day for a week until sheer
exhaustion forced me to the gp's surgery. I got prescribed a week's
erethromycin, which has actually made the coughing more painful, but I
now feel there's an end in sight as the airways are clearing. Obviously
what starts as a virus can turn into a bacterial infection, so
antibiotics are always worth a try

Glad to hear you're feeling a bit better. Hope that continues and
you'll soon be bouncing around in the garden. I can hardly wait to
reach that state myself, since sleep deprivation (as with you) has
compounded the misery.
Take care of yourself.

I find gargling whiskey for medicinal purposes and more effective.




LOL!! I know what you mean. I have been known to indulge. "Imbibe or
suffer" makes a lot of sense at the moment.
