Well I can say that the Hokey Pokey is exactly what it is all about
otherwise how would the human race exist in such large numbers.
Anyway back to the topic! I find the shared folder is useful when my wife
is writing the description for our ebay stuff - I have told her to star
there and leave them for me (don't think she know how to move stuff about
like us) so I know where they are and they are not hidden amongst all the
other junk. (can't see the wood for the trees - sort of thing)
Don't tell her that I have given myself access to the other drives so I
don't have to use her keyboard & screen when she loses something - I can
find it without too much aggro. Who shouted lazy bugger?
