      Yeah, I know. After 7 years working in a hardware store, I know all about it. I well remember the joys of spending half an hour explaining to a DIYer how to do a wiring project, only to have him ask on the way out (holding a SPST switch in his hand) , "Remind me - which terminal on this does the white wire go to?" Not to mention the one who screamed at one of my people and called him stupid because he didn't have a dimmer switch for a two speed ac fan motor. Or the irate customer who couldn't find anyone who knew what a Jew nail is (corrugated fastener) - all of our help were youngsters, born after the birth of Political Correctness. Sheesh... I don't envy you. Will Build Nuclear Missile For Food - No Target Too Small

            My big plans for the weekend were going out to one of these 'public houses' that people keep mentioning, but crawling into bed at 5pm today for a nap has probably put a finish to that. The good bit is after a bad back for two years today I put AC/CDs "If you want blood you've got it" on at full blast and bounced around the house for an hour earlier on, hence the nap :d Who needs a gym ? :-D Elaine (very, very tired fluffy tigress) PS I live in a detached bungalow so no problems as long as I don't start a landslide :laugh: The tigress is here :-D

                      Plans for today: Pick up remote and Compact Flash card reader from Jessops - Check! Install Provia (as opposed to the less subtle White Wedding) custom curve[^] on my D70 - Check! Go and experiment with custom curve vs non-custom curve shots outside - give me a few moments to view CP will ya? :-O Test long exposures with remote - hmmm, that all depends on whether or not this infernal cloud cover will move away and let some moonlight through :sigh: Sorry to hear you're at work - why are people with storm doors calling you? :~

                          Here's a sample[^] of a storm door. Most I've seen are essentially a screen door (though usually quite a bit stronger) for the house entry that includes clear window panels that can be added in winter for protection and insulation.
