Hi all,

I'm offline 99% of the time till who knows when

Because of a major earthquake off Taiwan on Monday, the undersea cables linking S E Asia to the States (and other some other countries) have been cut, apparently 6 out of seven are damaged. We can't normally get email or the net from anywhere except HK, and I'm dumbstruck that I've got through now....they say it may take weeks.

So I'm offline until they've mended them, probably can't read anything more either (maybe I can if it's the dead of the night like it is now) or reply so...until whenever

Hope everyone had a great Christmas, have a wonderful New Year, and I hope to goodness we all have a better year next year...

Look after yourselves, xxx
all the best!!
