Um?
Handwashers. Automatic. Freaky!! You'll be having to hit those soon as well... when do we get doors that automatically open whe you're near them? NOT sliding doors like at supermarkets and such, proper open/close doors on a hinge.

¦M¦

There's one in Superdrug in Monmouth
^. .^

And several in Safeways, Newport. They open when you stand on pressure pads on the floor.

<BB<

WOW!!!
Umm... can't think of anything else right now... too tired...

¦M¦

Maybe it's something to do with being nearish the Welsh border.
^. .^
= ' =

I'm nowhere near the Welsh border. I live in Sussex.

¦M¦

I've never been to Wales.
And Newport, Isle of Wight, is no-where near Wales either, yet they've had those doors in Safeways for at least 10 years.

<BB<

I've been twice - nice place... when it stops raining...

¦M¦

You could have said it was Newport, Isle of Wight. I had no idea there was a Newport on the Isle of Wight, and could only assume that you meant the one Newport I know about.

= ' =

lol...
If I said I lived near Washington, where would you think I lived? Most Americans would presume I lived near Washington DC. But I live near the Washington in Sussex...

¦M¦

If you go to my page, you can see at the top I've a map of the Isle of Wight, and that I have written about 12 Isle of Wight related Guide Entries. And Newport is the Capital of the Isle of Wight - so why would I be talking of Wales?
Ignorance is no excuse

<BB<

Oh, why can't I have an excuse like my best friend does? All she has to say is "I don't need an excuse, I'm a viola player"
Let me think...
OK, I don't need an excuse, I'm a rower. How does that sound?
And I am ignorant, whether it's an excuse or not.
^. .^
= ' =

lol... sorry Clelba, it doesn't really sound all that convincing...
*sudden thought*
How convincing does "I don't need an excuse, I'm a flautist" sound?


¦M¦

Mmm, pretty good. I think most musical ones work. Funny, that.
^. .^
= ' =

Cool !
You'll have to learn something musical then!

¦M¦

I can play the piano an ickkle bit, but I can't be bothered to be a musician.
^. .^
= ' =

I can play it an ickkle bit too - and I've been playing for 10 years and am still absolutely crap!! And it does take a lot of work, yeah...

¦M¦

I got to grade 1 , nearly did gradew 2 but gave up. i still play a bit occasionally.
