Roy, what a very rude man you are.!! Who do you think you are, to tell people what they should, or should not do on this list.? I thought that was the admins job. In the time it took you to reply to Marylou, YOU could,and obviously did,GOOGLE for web pages.Why did you not give them to her.THAT would have been less rude, and , more in keeping, with a helpful list. As far as I am concerned, Marylou was just following a line of discussion.I find nothing wrong with that.!! Here are a couple of webpage's for Marylou to look at. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graham_Norton http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/familyhistory/get_started/wdytya_s4_celeb_gallery_06.shtml regards from, Annabelle.
