    Well, somebody's got to keep the economy moving. I can't believe how busy I am - but finding living people in VBWorld has really cheered me up!

    Thanks you two, for merely being alive and vocal!

    I'd have to disguise it, so 'they' wouldn't find out where you are.

    I know, I'll leave it by the gates of the old churchyard. Be there at 1500 so it doesn't go cold...

    Good idea. I think you should go disguised as an Albatross. They'd never recognise you then....

    Pix, huh... I was gonna say something but I'd better just shut up

    CornedBee, if it makes you happier ( ), there are lots of fast food chains here. But people don't eat ONLY fast food (or half the population would be fat ) we have many other restaurants which balance things.

    As long as you don't kill me you're not
    I was just asking because I hear that there are many fast food chains in UK or USA. I don't assume that you don't eat anything else, and [edited out by my good manners]I will not write what I currently think[/edited], I just wanted to know how many there are...
