Pete, the Appleworks is pretty crap, the theory is that if they (Apple) made it too good Microsoft would stop making Office for Mac (as indeed they have just stopped making Iternet Explorer for Mac),so they keep it at an annoyingly crap level. Office for Mac OsX is supposedly superior to the windows version and comes with Word, Excel and Entourage (which note Dad is the pro version of Outlook Express [and can be found in your Applications Folder]) I will send you a version if you give me your address.

The hot water heater is finally connected to the electrics, the shower is finished so today Ruth and I will take alot of showers while trying to put the ceiling up. should have room no. 2 ready in a week or 10 days. I will see if we can get the resident model (e) to pose under the halogens. Still no door on the loo but fortunately no guests yet!

love to all, ps cats now weighing two kilos each, ie they have more than doubled in size.
