Some light relief during regular depressing Covid updates.

When we raced I would arrange my overseas visits such that I could be back for the Sunday series (though I never contemplated jumping from my means of transport (plane)

Thanks

The people inside my computer say this is/could be a dangerous file.

Your computer inhabitants are more clever then mine. Yours know that most anchor threads lack entertainment value - this one is an exception - so your people need to speak to my people - each have a lot to learn

Its a lovely story.

My computer inhabitants agree with yours.

This must be an anchor thread

Hopefully this works. The website isn't a 'safe' site as it doesn't have the 's' on the htpp bit .....

Works for me - and I checked - my lodgers did not object an iota.

Thanks for taking the trouble to do that. It's a good story. I'll have to speak very severely to my computer inhabitants for trying to exclude me from an anchor thread. ?

I imagine that the design of the foul anchor owed something to that of the caduceus rather than a deliberate attempt to show a problem. Maybe not. Dunno.

Glad you and others have enjoyed this "anchor" story.

As to some computor inhabitants not liking the web site, all I can say is the Norton inhabitants in my computer did not object.

My Norton has been throwing a fit recently and doesn't seem to open up, gets stuck on 'pending'. ie not working.

I'll face up to it sometime and give it a firm talking to.
