To waste one second of one's life is a betrayal of one's self. I wonder what's on television...?

Three good ones to start with! No wonder they changed it, Bernie. If you were driving and were a bit deaf..... Oops! Mrs Worrier loved them both Lady K, but I was just a little put off by the use of cartoon animation to portray discoveries etc in the Tyson version. Still, we have them both, and it's nice to rerun them now and again

Three more little gems! I must own up to sitting in front of various Youtube Swedish chef compilations and almost crying with laughter, jb

Sorry for the delay - Mrs Worrier and myself have both been battling the dreaded you know what. Still we've got past the "go away and let me suffer in peace" bit and it's looking good. A great set of answers finishes it off nicely folks. Never seen that before, Cheryl - I will now be in the same position as you

I'm glad you're both feeling better and hope you both recover completely.
