You can call me TC Posted Dec 1, 2004
I can't believe this thread has been revived after 2 and a half years.
I have cleaned out and changed my handbag several times since, and am most pleased with a new acquisition which easily gets lost in it: an mp3 player. With changeable cards, so I can have unlimited listening in a gadget smaller than a mobile phone.
