say "warm the pot" in a Cardiff accent. :-) But hey! Why not? That's how
new ideas are born.... ;-)

I meant that to read 'words from character 13 to paragraph 2 of t'.
There's nothing wrong with your computer! - or with mine - except that,
having all the speech stuff disabled, it's unable to say anything in a
