No you cant Ray. So, cellotape your legs around the rungs of the ladder when you reach the desired height.

Thanks Andy, you are obviously on Emergency Helpline duty whilst Denzil takes some time off, but I am sure he has briefed you well!

I don't know if I would want to trust a roll of sellotape to save me from disaster though. Perhaps I had better find a woman who lives in a bungalow. Incidentally, do you know why they are called bungalows. Well, the builder of the original one was low on funds and was getting fed up with the half finished job anyway, so in the end he told his fellow builders 'Just leave it as it is and bung a low roof on!'

Ray.

Aunt Miya

Thank you for replying. as you have noticed, your fellow agony person has come up with some practical suggestions, which I am considering, but he done say nuthin' bout mah plectrum. I guess he doesn't know about them thangs!

thanks auntie.

I didn't know that.

I love her CD To Drive the Cold Winter Away, and play it all year.
