Re the art of explaining stuff, to illustrate team work, our trainer used a video clip featuring the NZ All Blacks Haka. Quite effective really.

Surely the 'absconded' Nepalese choir can't be too hard to spot? And I thought this pumpkin sculpture was the latest Torchwood alien attack.

Dear Monitor Problem Page. A mate (male) and I have tickets for the Snooker World Championships on Friday night. The event is televised live on the ´óÏó´«Ã½. Would it be inappropriate to dress up as William and Kate in a pathetically obvious attempt to get on national television? We are both in our 50s. Truth be known, I rather fancy the idea of wearing an RAF uniform, but Eddie is adamant he won't wear a white dress or tiara. Is he being unreasonable?

Monitor note: A mature bride such as Eddie may feel a little exposed in a wedding dress. And the symbolism of wearing white may be taken as ironic. Perhaps an embellished coat and dress might do the trick?
Re . But not a patch on the CA-53W.

Re the "end" of stenographers, all these recordings will go to typists to be transcribed, which will put even bigger delays into the appeal system. Wealthy litigants and their attorneys, however, will ALWAYS opt to hire court reporters. Why? Because they've experienced the cheaper alternative - intelligent listening beats plain old recording hands down. It's happened here in the US.
PS: Henri, it's not "typing" (Wednesday letters). She writes all those letters in ONE stroke. That's where the speed comes from.

John (Wednesday letters), I can see your point but often for victims the process of forgiving is akin admitting that what happened is no longer affecting you. Forgiveness and grief are often intertwined.

Thanks for telling me who won Masterchef, ´óÏó´«Ã½ News, by putting a picture of the winner, BEFORE I had chance to catch up on iPlayer. *grumbles*
