    We put them in bags, we have no choice over who then gets them first. http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

    Talking of mail deliveries, I had a magazine subscription delivered by a milkman the other day. http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif Novel, but early for once at least.
    I'd start a revolution, if I could get up in the morning.

    Well, I guess I won't complain about the US Postal Service, given what I'm hearing from the other side of the pond.

    By the way, "football" season hasn't started yet. So I imagine y'all must be referring to the sport properly known as "soccer." http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/wink.gif

    Got my CD as well today. Pity all the fills etc are the same as for XX. Never mind.

    Who but Americans would call a game, "football" which is played predominantly with the hands. At least our football is played predominantly with the feet and only very occasionally with the head. Anyone touch the ball with the hands (other than the goalkeeper) and you are penalised (with a s not a z).http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

    PS No! I'm not a football fan, real or particularly "American"!

    Are you refering to the sport correctly known as Rugby, (but with the armour). http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

    Well the "Flying Haggis" delivered my CD today nice to see such prompt delivery.

    That game they call football over the pond is for "girls" as they even have to have someone to hold the ball so that they can convert a touchdown.
    Design is thinking made visual.

    I didn't want to say that, but it does all seem a bit 'girly' with all the padding etc. just for a game of rugby http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
    Don't get me started on 'Rounders', (which my daughter plays at school), having been re-named baseball and played by men. http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif
    And then of course there's Netball, another girls school favorite....what was that re-named?

    Mine arrived too by " Flying Haggis "
    Excellent service as well as superb food in the hunting season. Very handy too for scaring off the squirrels.
    Is the aforementioned football that nearly game where they have long rests to help them recover.
