    Glad to see you got the card, Lord Mair. Doesn't the colour suit me well?

    No need to curtsey.

    So tell me Eric, what happens when the Canarian postal service finally stops holding my Donkey with Hat entitled S*xy Lover (yes honestly, that was the surprise, now I've given it away, darn) to ransom, and sends it on to you/or, you find Malveen's been using it as a teapot stand?
    What will you do with it then?

    Gee whiz, I must take the dog out now, or I shall miss the Archers.....

    Eddie,

    Re: 'Royal' postcard.

    If it says " One loves the blog, Eddie".

    Could it be an Eddie that signed it?

    Oh dear, oh dear,

    Seems knitted bathing trunks are not the only things that stretch.

    Eddie - just talk nicely to Richard the blog wizard. On second thoughts perhaps that's why you're giving up postcards.

    Oh, I didn't mean that the way it sounds - Richard we all think you are wonderful.

    Eddie, Thanks for trying though....

    Madge & Dolores,

    It's all an illusion, sadly. Right-click and 'view image' will dispell it.
    Awwww shucks!

    If it says "One loves the blog" does it mean that one of them does, & the other doesn't?

    And as for poor old Silver Fox, "I seem to have corrupted our download" what EXACTLY have you done then? And are you sure you are qualified to fix it?
    Or does "Will fix it anon" mean you'll get someone else to fix it, anonymously. (Lissa we know you're there)

    This is a media programme.
    So is PM.

    Can also stand for Common Access Programme. So is PM.
    One more that one thousand six hundred and fiftynine.
    1660 or in the 24 hour clock 1700 just when PM is coming on.
    Come on Eddie all signs lead to PM but no clue to what is actually going on!
    Somebody help me, please.

    This is all getting too confusing.
    Fifi,Sis, et al, I'd love to join, if I understood one word of what you writ. I don't, so go forth and enjoy whatever it is.
    Trying to make sense of 1659, CAP and Flash is enough to make me relive my disastrous attempts to join Mensa.
    Incidentally Dr H, wasn't it your alter ego who wouldn't join any club that would have him as a member?

    Wow, Mrs Trellis!

    It's lateral thinking minds like yours that I really envy! I, like Aunt Dahlia, am just terribly, terribly confused about it all.

    Yet, quite excited, all the same. I've always loved surprises. Yes, it's worked, Eddie, you've been doing your best to get us excited about it and now I am and I have no idea why!

    OK, what apart from PM being one, is a common access programme? Is this a technical broadcasting term or just another way of describing a free to air radio programme that anyone can listen to whether they pay a licence fee or not?

    Hmmm...what can it be.......?

    Jo xx

    ps can I just ask, when are we going to be put out of our misery?

    I'll look forward to that - count me in!

    Aunt Dahlia (14):

    To join, if you can call it 'joining', click on my name at the top of this message. That'll take you to the website of the band I'm in.

    In which I am, Val P ... I saw you cringe!

    Send us an email via the Contact Us bit ... or it might be the 'put me on your mailing list' bit, I can't remember ... Oh, it would help if you could indicate that you are in fact Aunt Dahlia; something tells me that may not be your real name!

    Then wait patiently for the webmeister to come off shift, forward the message to me, and I'll be in touch asap after that.

    By the way, although aforementioned webmeister scorns the PM blog (he's a punk, and certain things I do just don't appeal to him because, in his words, I'm a 'hippy'. Cheek!) he is now insanely curious about all these messages I'm getting.

    Having just heard the mention live on the PM prog I have come to the conclusion you are a PM teaser - teaser can get a reputation you know!

    I think this is simply a bluff to get to 20,000 entries on the blog.

    OK, here's my new idea - though I like Mrs Trellis's - the aim is, on a certain day, to 'cap' our fabbydoozy total of 1,000 by raising it to 1700; at that moment thousands of photographers and media correspondents, and a cub reporter from staff mag Ariel, will be there to record the moment for posterity.

    Soooo, it's more like cap.
    Cap: To win a cap is to represent your country or in this case the PM programme. Possibly this alludes to the regular listeners to act as "local" reporters or...nope, I shall have to put my thinking cap on for a while. To the beach post haste!

    I note she's taking it on in addition to her other presenting duties.

    Do you think Val S is taking over PM whilst Enid More goes of to live on an island, or is trained to juggle whippets whilst jumping backwards through a flaming hoop singing the Marsellaise with no clothes on.
