POSTCODES are very useful. These days, if you do not write a postcode on a letter there is a good chance it will, at least, be delayed.
This site gives you the postcode of every address in the UK -- although for some strange reason you have to register (for free) beforehand.

WE are all humming or singing it -- a future chart hit methinks.
But who on earth is it singing "I'm Sticking With You" on that car advertisement? I nipped in to this site and found it it was the Velvet Underground. A hippy/rock band from way back. (I may, or may not, have downloaded an mp3 of it via WinMx as well. I am not saying). This site has an amazing database, find almost any song or piece of music used with a television advertisement by alphabetical order. The only problem is that you do need to know the product and if you're anything like me you will remember the tune but not what it is selling.
FUN and games with Paintshop Pro and Photosuite. Actually a lot of fun while helping you to get the most out of your software. The current competition is to use food as big or small as you like -- look at the giant hot dog and a bite-size turkey they show you as examples. The site's name is based on "a picture paints a thousand words". But it takes words to say that.
NOSTALGIA for the 1980's? But it was only five minutes ago... Actually it wasn't and if you are in your 20s it covers your childhood. So if you want to be reminded about Zorba The Hutt, GI Joe and friends this is the site for you.
