    3. I get up at about 8 am each day and switch on. The computer is on then until I go to bed around midnight. I don't switch it off because I have permitted a University (Oxford, in UK, and Stanford in USA) to use the spare space on my computer for cancer research. If any wants further details I will be glad to send them. You don't have to be on line for this - they set up the "problem" while you are on line, and then your computer works on it - but the computer does have to be switched on. I might be tempted to leave it on overnight, but I know Don would be unhappy about a possible fire risk. Marj Also I never leave tv's on standby either, in fact my new tv came with the instructions that it must NOT be left on standby for long periods. Roz --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free.

    3. Roz - been there, done that, got the tee shirt! You have to remember that there are some of us in the world who are poor, weak willed creatures who don't stick to sensible diets. I am trying the Benecol now as a last resort, advised by my GP. I never buy an item without reading the food values on the label. However, can't see the point of putting the butter on and then scraping it off again so, I'm better with a substitute that I don't really like. If the bread is nice enough, I will do without altogether. I would love to eat the lovely salad I make for Don each lunch time - but I HATE it! I should eat brown bread, but I don't like that either. If you live long enough with my lifestyle, you are glad of something to try, believe me. Marj > There is no way on earth I will eat margarine, let alone that rubbish they > call Benecol.
