I aim for 7000 a day Marina. It used to be 10000 but I'm still having trouble with nerves catching in my leg so I have reduced it. My lovely physio suggested it! 

Gert, someone on here said 'if you want it, and you can afford it, go for it. '. I think they are wise words.

"If you want it, and can afford it, go for it" was also a statement made by Sarah Murdoch with regards to cosmetic surgery.

How do you copy previous post as a quote? I couldn't work this out.

Just click on 'QUOTE' in the box on the right hand side of the posting that you want to copy and you get what I have posted above MEP.  It comes up in a new comment box.

Thanks Judy. I'm on an iPad and didn't seem to work for me. Can anyone else do this on an iPad or is it just me?

Astarra, the book looks interesting, did you have to pay for postage also?
Where did the book come from, nothing on the website to say who put it together.

I have no idea about postage sorry, a friend got a few and we brought them off her.  :)
it has so many good family recipes in it, I really love the book. just wish it said how many serves per recipe.

just looked on the website and it said flat rate postage $20.  :) HTH

MEP, I did it on my iPad.
There is another way to do it.  Bring up your box to post something, browse down to the post you want to insert in your post then click on (insert quote) on the RHS.

Ah, thanks Judy. The above was my attempt following your instructions. Whikst it displayed ok now, it didn't look that way on my screen earlier. You learn something new everyday.

Thanks again.

I only turn the computer on when I need to print something, sometimes only once a week or fortnight.  When my printer stops working I'll buy one compatible with the iPad as it's my favourite device nowadays.

Yesterday we bought a Husqvana ride on mower. They also gave us a small trailer to attach to the back. Will be delivered today.
Also bought a microscope for our GD for her birthday. It is not a toy but the real thing.
This is one of the things I love about Ballarat. So much available , with little effort.

Mmm. Not sure which I would  like best, probably the ride on mower now a days. I'm sure GD will love the microscope. It is one of those things where it is not worth buying a toy one as they are pretty useless.
