I dont have any problems posting with my iPhone, but it is a bit fiddly. Most of the time I post from my laptop, but sometimes at night I can't be bothered booting up , so I usually have a look at latest posts before I go to bed, and sometimes do an occasional post on it.

I was quite surprised how comparatively easy it was to post something via the iPod, though I agree, it was a little fiddly... |

QUOTE(fsharpminor @ Aug 25 2009, 10:50 AM) QUOTE(Maizie @ Aug 25 2009, 10:43 AM) But snails are much nicer to pick up by the shell, whereas slugs are not something I have any desire to touch. And snails are far more satisfying to lob over the fence, you can hear them clatter through the trees on the other side which doesn't happen with slugs. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Yes, I too always lob snails into next doors garden, but I always squash slugs ! Well, I think both your methods are nicer than those of someone I know - she always puts salt on the poor creatures. Perhaps I'm not aware of treading on slugs (as, unlike an earlier poster I don't go out without shoes in the dark!), because it always seems to be the snails I notice!

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/thereThere.gif) I'm sitting in a half-dismantled old music room, and the new music room is still the sitting room, albeit with new walls and floor and the piano moved there. Sometimes it's hard to let go... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/unsure.gif) |

We are clearing out my late mother-in-law's flat, making preparations to sell it. My brother-in-law lives up that way, and is currently on gardening leave, so he is doing the bulk of the work, the star.
Yesterday, he was clearing out the garage - it contained loads more empty boxes [anything that ever came in a box, keep the box], three broken lawn mowers, and lots of other bits of rubbish. At the very back of the garage, he came across a shoebox. Opened it up, and it had layers of tissue paper on the top. Ooooooooh, what long forgotten gem could this be? So he unwrapped the tissue paper to reveal...the complete skeleton of a hedgehog. Clearly it'd been tucked away to hibernate, and the completely forgotten! We found it terribly funny in a terribly sad kind of way. Actually, I think it must have never woken up from hibernation, otherwise it would have at least tried to nibble its way out of the cardboard box/tissue paper, so that's a bit less sad than it being trapped and forgotten. |

Oh fgs.. another piece added to the backlog (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Started playing the first page this morning, now I want to learn it all... 7 pages though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) At least it's *relatively* easy and isn't a Beethoven Behemoth.
