Frank
It must be all those fresh eggs and home-grown veggies you were brought up on. Not to mention the illicit bacon.
Just a quick query - did your mother have an unusual spelling for 'Elizabeth', or is that a typo'? Not that I want to be a nit-picking idiot, but just noticed it.
Best wishes,

Helen,
Go to the top of the class and take a cookie out of the jar, Typo it is. Some one has to keep me right, I once had a PA but now there is no one to blame.
The bacon by the way was legal, we were allowed to kill two pigs a year for ourselves but had to give two to the government food agency. The odd one or two did get lost once they were fat but when the local bobby did his count it was always right. Dont ask me what that lump was under his coat though.
Put the typo right Helen there's a good girl and we may have a lolly pop for you .
A query how do I post a picture on the personal page. Peter did explain a complicated way round it but then said he was waiting for further tuition from the Staffer's.
Regards Frank.

Dear Frank
Well if you reckon the bobby's consent was legal, then you're right, all was above board.
I'm far too old for lollipops, but how about a boneo for the whippet?
Will make that change.
Where's my PA when the going gets tough? I suppose there's always my colleague Paul!
All the best,
Helen, WW2 Team

Oh by the way - we would very much like members to be able to add a picture to their Personal Pages, but we haven't developed this function yet (as the article template is rather different to the 'About me' template).
Sorry to disappoint. If Peter has sussed a way around it then please do break the rules with his guidance!
All the best,

Dear Helen,
I must be fifty years older than you yet I still like a lolly-pop with my grandson nearly three. He is sitting here with my video's of big trucks and discussing the values of inter-coolers and twin blowers, they are all born with university educations now.
Paul would be getting the thick end of my tongue if he was my PA, he has failed. I asked if he could put the Dance Hall into the book page he said yes and then nothing. I was used to giving orders and having them obeyed without having to check every five minutes, we can replace him you know.
I may try Peter's way round to see if it works since I can do everything including make tea and supply stawberry's and cream from this big scanner printer coppier and comforter in bad times machine. Strawberry's being my grandsons favourite food but not with "MATO" sauce on granddad that is for sausages. I am a silly granddad.
Benji likes only Biscrok so "X" would have to comply with old bossy boots I am afraid.
Regards Frank

Dear Frank and Helen
Don't I have enough to do with being Len Baynes' Editor AND Frank's publicist? Seriously, sorry for that, don't know what happened, it's done now, more grovelling etc etc...
Best wishes

STOP THAT WHINGE MAN. When you have cleaned my boots and equipment bring me a coffee, white no sugar.
Publicist? with my big voice? All I need is a gofor.
My ex-PA said I was a pure B****** but a fair one, I treat them all the same, no favourites.
Right checked it out and it is where it should have been weeks ago so crawl out and get on with it.
Oh Errrr and Thanks.
Regards Frank.
