I think oysters are people too, but they must get real bored sitting around
making pearls. I bet if they had headphones and could listen to Kate, you'd
get them on the net complaining that you were discriminating against them.

Actually I found this thing in the boot of my car one day with ten - like holes.
And I stuck a whole lot of round shiny things in it and the next time I tried to
listen to the weather when I was "Commuting", music came out of holes in my doors.

(I reckon Len is actually Kate, because who else would be trying to sell an old 
toilet bowl from the back yard of her house).

Ken.

P.S. I think Vickie is trying to kill me by putting so many damn pictures in Wow
that I'm going to die while looking for Lord Lichfield's picture from "The Worlds
Most Beautiful Women", or whatever it was called. It's not that I really need it, 
I just want to be able to print it so I can stick it on the ceiling of my bedroom.
If I can hide it up there that is....
