Heulwen, the first thing to remember is to forget everything. Do as Night Owl suggests, start a thread like "need some words", and watch some smartass (aka: Yours Truly) start listing the first page or so of Websters Dictionary.
LEJ, who are you calling a "notorious bunch of motley misfits?" I, sir, resemble that remark!!
Yes, Heulwen, you too, like Mick, Rick and the rest of us will find yourself sitting in front of your 'pewter posting to the various threads at all wierd hours of the day and night...(ie: note the time on this one, I could be sleeping)
MMario, I saw you put the cup down and got both arms into it, very good! Now let's all pick up our cups and hoist a toast to Heulwen's induction into the Mudcat Cafe!
LOVE THIS PLACE!!!
