Spaniards complaining about dancing and music late into the night doesn't
match my image of them as a romantic, fun-loving nation; but IANAS.

The police did have a point, though.

Simon,

Out of curiosity, is there a reason why you prefix your web page names with
a 'z'?

Or has this question been asked before?

It has been asked before. I use a z prefix for pages that are temporary.
After a while I can collect all my webpages in a folder and click on the
"arrange by name" tab. All of the z pages + photos will be grouped together
so I can delete them all in one go.

Noooo! Don't delete the web! We'll end up in a world of 404s.

My ISP has a limit of 20MB, so I'll run out of room if I don't delete them.
Some big files (600MB in total) I farm out to another site which makes its
money out off offering webspace for the money it makes from the phone call.
My ISP is a free dial up, so if I posted that newspaper clipping on the
other site it would cost money.

Hey, you're managing to read usenet, which is more than a lot of
internet users are able to figure out these days. Bottom posting, too.
I think you're putting yourself down unnecessarily.

Thanks for the morale boost but i do know my
limitations,i frequently have to beg my friend or
nephew to fix one thing or another for me,as

people tend to do in this n.g.
