For those wondering why I have not responded to E mails, my email receival is kaput.
I can send mail but the firewall has got out of whac and it is beyond me to fix so I have to wait till the guru is available.
For more urgent messages I am available on tele *****
Regards to all Wally

Hey Wally,
Why don't you use web-based email (gmail, hotmail, etc). I've been web-based for years now and never miss email clients.
It's simpler, (arguably!) more secure and you can easily access your mail from anywhere in the world. I use gmail and hotmail.
I can sign you up if you like - you can always just use it as a 'backup' in case of problems like this.
Cheers
Mike.

Ha Ha!
Wally, I know what you mean about passwords!
Do you have a Gmail account? There's already a ******* ..
If you've forgotten your password, they usually have a secret question that you can answer and reset your password...
Anyhow, just in case, I've reserved you the "******" username!
Cheers,
Mike.

Hey Wally,
Are you sure you gave teh right phone number there?
I tried giving you a bell, but no luck - goes to some business in Port Pirie!
Cheers,
Mike.

Sorry about that ****** is the number.
Most people in PP are obliging and check the number for the caller.
Anyway I am not hard to find on white pages web.
had a little party tonight and one gift was a flagon of rich red.
A lot of nightcaps in that.
Best regards to all Wally

Yeeesh! Have a care guys. This a public forum. Private nums and email addresses I'd say No No.  Think spammers and less savoury types. We have enough trouble culling out the psychos as it is.  PS: Wally, is your PW the one I have for geocities? Will send privately if so.  |

Spammers are a prob but a good filter works and most emails have a blocking provision, I should have thought about the phone No but I splash mine around all over the place and apart from a few pesky telemarketers I don't have much trouble. When you keep asking them to repeat and tell them you are hard of hearing they take you off their call list.

I am off the air again. Looks like a U/S modem.
Priced a modem at shop, price was a darn sight less than what telecom charged me
I am communicating per local cafe.
Waiting for guru to finish building house
Weather too unsettled to go bush, last thing I want is to be caught in a flood

Yes Wal the weather has been great, we have green paddocks (bindis and onion weed came up first) and it is starting to look promising but we got a good start last year and that fizzled. Some areas are putting in extra plantings in the hope of cashing in on high grain prices, if it hadn't looked this good they would have saved the fuel but it could improve. The creek out back is full of frogs so they expect the water to hang around long enough to raise a family. For the first time in years the humidity has reached 75% (I was beginning to think my guage was broken it hasn't climbed higher than 40% for ages) fingers crossed, I am going down to check on the wheat shortly to see if it is up.

Welcome back Wal. Been off air myself. Bills to pay, no time for The Box.  |
