QuoteWeLoveToPlayTheBlues Quotecolonial QuoteChrisM Interesting to see this thread again. After some reflection, what is really meant by "British" in this context?

I heard this on NPR awhile back. It doesn't matter by what means one gets to know another. People were doing the same things we do today online before the advent of the Internet by writing letters, ham radio and even the telegraph. The passing of such accquaintences and friends is felt just as keenly as someone you from face to face interaction. On another matter, Naturalust, are you sure

QuoteStonesTod yeah, right. my wife and keith have been seeing all the wrong docs. And my mum as well. I'd love to believe what you write Naturalust but nothing you say here can be substantiated by my personal experience. Mum tried everything you list as "cure" so don't be so quick to disparage others who have not found relief in the methods you prescribe.
