We live in an age where we have to wear tin foil hats Lord Herbert. If you relax online and let all your details hang out - then occasionally some sicko who's taken a dislike to you will exploit that information.

Thank you for the tip-off, Lady Mantra.

I would never let my details hang out. I wouldn't want to frighten the horses.

I've rushed to the kitchen to get a roll of Multix Alfoil ~ 'Stronger than Ordinary Foil' ~ and have wrapped several feet of it around my computer.

I now feel protected against hackers and sickos, especially those who want to see my details hang out.

If that was an attempt at humour - FAIL

Take your ticket to the lady in the foyer and she'll refund your money. Tongue

Froggie,

As a young teen my first ever concert was the Atlantics at the Coff's Harbour Town Hall - but my real claim to fame was seeing The Shadows play at Chequers. In those days it seated about 150 ppl. A few years ago (so 45 years later) I happened across a guy that was at exactly the same show. Small world

But yeah .... my music taste is still back there
