I stand corrected. I thought it was a universal. Dash-dash-space.
Indebted to you, sir.

Ah. I don't think it's a phrase used this side of the pond.

There's a wander down memory lane. Windy's long dead. Didn't WwP die,
too? Last I heard of Dan Nitschke was maybe four or five years ago.
Still working for Apple, I suppose. Ivan's still around. Those pages
must be 10 years old.

Dennis and Windy were both killed by cigarettes before they were 50. Gaye is
also gone, a brain tumor I think.

I regularly interact with Dan on Facebook. I think Robyn is also active there.

Ivan still posts to Reeky occasionally. He's busy trying to make a Black Hole
over at CERN. Julie has moved on to a completely different phase of her life
and apparently does not want to be reached.
Shirley and Adny still pop up in email from time to time, though it's been a
year or two since I've heard from either of them. The rest, I don't know.
If there's any good to come of this thread, I've again been plonked by Clarke.
All's right with the world.

I went to Windy's funeral. There was a massive turnout.

Didn't know her.

Pass on my best wishes to Dan. Got an email addie? The one in my sig is
valid.

I know - he posts regularly on ukrm. I sold him a dirt bike a few years
ago and some scrotes nicked it within a month.
