My father used to refer to BBC Droitwich as "about a mile LW" rather
than 1500 metres.

Your point made me realise that the wavelength measurements are much more
comprehensible than frequency for the radio bands.

We've got mile long waves, yard/meter, and by the time we get to inches
we're off the band.

Was this kilo/megacycles, or as the mad europeans made us say hertz,(which,
being european makes no sense) sneaked through while we weren't looking
after saving all their bacon? I think that talking of wavelengths suddenly
gives me a feel for it.

And I've only just noticed after umteen years in the trade.

Maybe you should offer some sort of inverse feedback. The more pain she gives
you the less pleasure you give her.


Aargh! I'm not going to be able to look my (very sexy) dentist in the
eye again ;-))

The level you're usually at in the dentist's chair it's not the eyes
in the head that will be winking at you.

Mine's a Dr Tang. Fang might be a better nomenclature.

True story: many years ago SWMBOs local GP practice was run by Dr.
Ashley Pain, and Dr. Ann King... or as their sign said "Dr. A. King &
Pain". IIRC A King is now retired, leaving A Pain on his own ;-)

The answer to the dentist problem is to wrap your hand firmly around
his testicles, and say "We're not going to hurt each other, are we?"

Her purse.
