Thanks, yes I did think about Hamster but due to extreme laziness I did 
wonder if there were some clients that had this sort of ability built 
in. Newsman Pro does, apparently... I just need to get around to 
actually trying it some day!

I've been rather busy lately, I moved to Tassie in April and in fact 
only this arvo made an offer on a property. I hope they accept :)

**Jesus... just realised I never even checked if the local exchange has 
broadband either. I better go do that now.
