Gavin, It's lose not loose! Once i'd have let pass by, but 6 times?!
Sorry, it's been a bad day today with a client insisting that colorant
should be colourant "because their competitors spell it that way"
regardless of it being checked at Dictionary .com etc. There, that's my
rant over as well.

New to this freelance network malarky and have just "lurked" for a few
weeks with just the ocassional (unfunny) comment.
I'm afraid all the technical stuff goes straight over my head, so I
probably won't contribute much to those threads.
Find the recipes, cheese salad sagas etc riveting tho'

'til next time.
