    I feel we have only arrr&bee's word that they were indeed good fairies..and I also note the inclusion of that operative word 'hooch'.

    Me, I think those fairies who visited him were t'other kind.....

    He has a vivid imagination, westgrand. And it doesn't matter if he's "hooched up" or not.

    Away with the fairies, as some will say. And why not, for he'd be in good, kind company.

    And besides, those little spirits can really FLY!!!

    OK - in that respect, I'd certainly be ticked off if I felt the fairies left nothing to prove they'd visited me

    Precisely. Which reminds me of the dialled speaking clock, from decades ago.

    I read in the papers some years ago that someone used the key they still had to their cheating ex's apartment and left the phone off the hook after calling the speaking clock in Australia, resulting in a hefty bill.

    Kept to a sensible and balanced perspective, that's exactly the way I feel it should be.

    if we don't think we are OK, how can we expect others to feel the same way?

    Hmmm, yes moe, but that word 'Unique' carries many interpretations...

    MInd you, I guess I was born 'a bit of a worrier'...!

    As one of the guys at work says :"No Worries." And 9 out of 10 times he's right! In this case: no worries, and have a nip [[you'll relax)!!

    The 'No Worries' brigade are all over the place. Yes, they do have a relaxed approach, but need to be watched when there is some sort of problem or query, but which they're not quite addressing. That 1 out of 10 times...

    Have you experienced the 'No Problems' or 'No Probs' approach - often made during a routine transaction in a store, when there really shouldn't be a problem at all! But ask them an unexpected question, and often their expression suddenly becomes blank...

    I always feel that 'the person who understands the situation, controls it' - but I have to admit to frequently wanting to scratch my head in bemusement!

    Keeping a sense of humour helps....but at times, it does need working at...

    Nothing beats the blank look of the Jehovah Witness at the door when you get the better of them in a theological discussion. They never come back.

    I'm not a Witness myself, but I'd much rather hear from them [[they are invariably cheerful and polite) than some of the telesales people [['The Uninvited')

    They have a job to do, and they're supposed to be selling me something, but very often they will first try to start an argument with me about what I'm already doing...

    They tend to get agitated when they are told that if they're going to take the Bible literally, they need to read it in its original language to avoid mistranslations into English.

    144man, I believe you're referring back to your earlier remark about the Witnesses - but I'm sitting here smiling, wondering if that tactic would also work with telesales people, and gnats.

    The telesales people do speak English - but I sometimes find it hard to understand them.

    It's anyone's guess which language might be used by the gnats...

    At some stage my name was erroneously omitted from the BT Directory. I subsequently changed to Virgin, so I very rarely get cold calls now.

    If I get unwanted texts on my mobile, I forward them to SPAM and I never hear from that company again.

    With the gnats I'm not so successful.

    At least the phone calls and texts come one at a time.

    Even a few gnats buzzing around seem like a swarm..and they kill millions of people each year, unless you live in Antarctica....
