I can't remember what edition of Windows introduced virtual desktops but for years I've overlooked its usefulness. I think I viewed it as like BA screen layouts and thought I only need one layout for trading, but it's really as good as having several screens in front of you. You can only look at one screen at a time anyway. :D

End Of The Line - Travelling Wilburys is one of my all-time fave recording tracks, it makes me happy :) it moves me. George dead, Roy dead, Tom dead but Jeff & Bob Dylan are still alive and Bob a confirmed Coronation Street fan.

There are never any small trolleys at ASDA. So I approached a woman who had just finished unloading hers for her trolley and she said; there you are young man. :D :lol:

Another aspect of moving house that concerned me as its further away from telephone exchange was my pings.

However early signs are my pings are in half decent order. And I hope all of you have your pings in order too. Happiness all round. :)
