Hi all So Roy Orbison was blind with no teeth ......... all he needs now is a parrot and a wooden leg ....... As a matter of fact he was rather shy I think , and had his fair share of tragedy ........ http://www.orbison.com/ click on the graphic at the top ...... Go on treat yourselves to a little bit of nostalgia - it's BSE free ............. Dave :-) Working in the web mines , and what do I get , another day older and deeper in debt ............
