I hope this isn't true. Bob DeWoody My motto: Never do today what you can put off until tomorrow as it may not be required. This no longer applies in light of current events.

Hardly the scoop of the century. ID: 2053413 ·      Reply Quote

I think the only that they've got left of the old kitchen is the coffee machine.... Bob Smith Member of Seti PIPPS (Pluto is a Planet Protest Society) Somewhere in the (un)known Universe?
