    Heheheh - yup, same wavelength for sure!

    Re the counting thing (I too use Word!), I agree, there may have been something somewhere about spaces... but in the end it little matters as the challenge doesn't improve any for having maybe a breathing space of 10!!! YAM xx

  3. That IS news! I wondered how that family fit in there, too. Did they sleep standing up?

  5. What is the thing about characters? A Twitter matter? A bit of Twit? Oh, well...

    Loved this. It's a shame they had to live that way in those days. Now they would be glad for even that much space... otherwise, they'd be in a truck off the road somewhere. Nonetheless, I had to laugh at your commentary, because yeah, it's all in the math. And the condoms! Amy
