    2. Kostas & Angela Nicolaou
    3. And wasn't there a heavy discussion on this before, that Scouse actually originated from Norway (you remember Danny) Lobscouse was a Norwegian word or something ? Best wishes angela Cyprus

    1. Re: [NTH-ENG] Teatime
    2. Marged
    3. Hi Glenda I couldn't possibly drink tea first thing in the morning - I like coffee then, and mid morning too. At lunch time, I make a pot of tea, and we have probably two cups with our meal. At 4pm I make a cup of coffee again, and we have a biscuit (cookie), while we watch the quiz "Fifteen to One" and the "Countdown". After that, I don't make any more tea unless my friends come, who prefer tea to anything, and I try to remember to offer them biscuits or cake. I try my best not to eat between meals, but an Irish friend told me she was very surprised that the English will offer people tea or coffee and nothing to eat with it. She taught me "I was in the house half an hour and she didn't even ask me had I a mouth on me!" Marged | How many times a day, and at what time, does teatime take place | in the UK ? What does one usually have during teatime besides | the tea ? --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

    1. [NTH-ENG] Re: VBS problem
    2. Kostas & Angela Nicolaou
    3. Mikey, That's what happened to me. There is a file needed at start-up that this thing VBS attaches itself to. I ran Dr.Nortons one button check-up and set it to repair any problems. That seemed to sort it out somehow. I disabled Scripting in Windows from Control panel, and then later enabled it where AVG took care of the virus contained in the Windows files, such as sample etc.. Couldn't you just strangle the people who start all this trouble ? Best wishes angela Cyprus

    2. Marion
    3. Brings back memories of when I was sixteen and got a job for the local small village CO-OP, did you know they were very choosy in them days and the man would come all the way from Newcastle to interviews the prospective shop assistants. They were also renowned for the best staff training, the store had a travelling shop which went out everyday to the outlying villages. Customers were allowed to tick on and we actually stood behind a counter and served folk in 1971 :-) TTFN Marion remembering :-((
