You're a bloody liar jones!! I remember the look on your face when Chris
(Dilwyn's wife) first decided to "spring clean" his bachelor pad...... you
missed every bit you threw out.
He had just about every piece of QL hardware ever created stuffed somewhere
- not to mention 9 million PC and QL magazines in the loft. I remeber be
looked like someone who had lost a close friend when he gave me a load of
bits n' bobs from his stash!!
I also remeber when he was standing on a stepladder getting bits from the
attic hatch, he reached up to grab a box, taking a deep breath as he did -
and his trousers ended up around his ankles!! Chris and me fell about the
place laughing.. all you could see was big legs and y-fronts!!
Then there is the other time he ended up on his rear end at the top of a
waterfall near my house, twice, but thats another story....
Cheers,
(and yes, I am back on the list - and the baby is doing well. teething at
the minute!!)

The sad part of it is, looking back, I agree with her about all the
junk! At least most of the QL parts went into the hands of other QLers
(Darren, Rich Mellor and others at Quanta workshops) rather than
ending up in a landfill somewhere.
Thank you Marcel for bringing some space into this house by enabling
me to do everything on a single computer via QPC2!
