They live in the Tyne valley; I live in the Wear valley. I won't tell you what the Geordies call us...... 2. I presume you mean haar. Otherwise known as sea-fret. A good Viking word for the mist that rolls in off the sea on nice, warm summer days, thereby causing them to become cool, damp summer days. All the above with a wacking big grin (wbg). WRT electricity, Catherine is visiting the gym three times a week and I am converting an old exercise bike into a rather effective generator. Spouses do have their uses...... Of course, this all assumes that NTL can get off their collective backsides and produce a correct set of paperwork instead of the three sets of defective stuff they have sent so far. I have given up contacting them and am just waiting for the engineers to call. Let them waste some of their time for a change. Off to trim some wicks. m
