Welcome Kate.....ok it's time to confess Mike....

Kate you know that Dob your husband has been using...it actualy cost him around $10,000 to set up..... plus extra's as below.

The Canon DSLR was $4000
The laptop $2500
The Dob Patform $2000

And there's more....but I dont want to get Mike in to trouble.

Hi Kate!
You might get that computerised Janome afterall now.

Hey Mike! You can run, but you can't hide.

You're Quite right, and Since Mike is probably on his way home now and can't read this yet, get out his scope and have it setup as if you are playing with it, get a few screws from the garage and say when he walks in, "Honey where do these go back in" while holding a hammer and a screwdriver

Hi Kate!

My Cheryl keeps threatening to sign up. She says that then she will be able to get in here and tell you all that I have to get off the pooter so she can do her ebay!

brilliant houghy!!!!

this is a great moment in IIS!

this is a great chance for us to catch mikes post count. all that "work" he was doing at home on the computer and was unable to help with the dishes is now been exposed.

i would have given a kings ransom to see mikes face when the new member list was updated.

if we can get kate spamming then we are laughing as you can't cop off the bosses wife!!!
