            "Simpsons" given that it has kept me laughing for so many years, and so consistantly. I remember I thought "The Goodies" were funny when i was younger, and then I watched an episode last week with a friend and we thought *WTF* ?? haha

                        I started thinking about all the TV programmes that I actually like (not just comedy) and about what channels they are on. I have come to the conclusion that ITV is just full of mindless drivel. It is a commercial channel and must make its money from advertising, unlike the BBC, and I can't think of a single program that I would go out of my way to watch, and I can't think of much that I would stop and watch if I was channel hopping (probably the odd film, but that's about it). So, who watches all that mindless crap? I know realise why, when ever I see adverts on the TV, I get an urge to run down to the shops and buy all the products I've just seen, even if they are of no use to me. I have no built up immunity to them. (I stopped my Sky subscription last year also, so I don't get that anymore either)

                              You forgot: Having the entire street/square journey up to Scotland only for half of them to get lost in the back of beyond with someone who is injured and when they eventually find a telephone box to dial for an Ambulance their description of their location is "I dunno! Somewhere in Scotland" only for the ambulance to miraculously turn up 10 minutes later.

                                  And might I note that I'm pleased to see that the Royal Wedding has made you very Australian aware :) I happened to mention it to my wife the other day - she asked 'Royal Wedding? What Royal Wedding - has Charles done it again'. After I stopped laughing I took the opportunity to remind her that the British don't have the only Royal Family in the world :) Alas, I've seen no mention whatsoever of the Danish Royal Wedding in the US (but I should also say that neither of us watch TV news - I get my news from a compendium of Australian, European and US websites). Now if only I could find some sources of Danish news that I can read in the only (alas) language I'm fluent in, English :) Rob Manderson I'm working on a version for Visual Lisp++
