Dave and Bryan, Just come on line to 53 e-mails, most of which are digest mode. Dave I checked connections, they are ok, it doesn't do it all the time, just sort of flickers the screen for a bit especially when reading the mail. It's bearable, so not to worry at this stage. Bryan, strictly tee-total on my part I'm afraid. I realized almost too late, almost 3 years ago that I never knew when to stop, and was allowing the drink to control me instead of the other way around :) I feel 100 times better now, and hopefully my liver has recuperated. All the best, Angela
