I started this as an awareness picture after my other half had an allergy test and discovered she was allergic to a whole load of every day food products (print out below) but then I couldn't resist a b3ta twist.
Mrs XLVII's Allergy print out

that printout - it's insane... can she only eat ricecakes now?

and it's not for the board as I have a distinct failure of the hummus-gland today, sadly. Has to be a gif or a jpg, and lossybits drive me mental.
edit; the jpg came out at 115k... waaay too big. probly because I'm hungover and an idiot though.
Thanks for bothering to reply though, really appreciated.

to help out one of my brothers, setting up web pages for email over amateur radio. Because I've been involved with computers since I was 16 (I'm 56 now and a major b3ta lurker) and machines were the size of small bungalows, then it follows that I must know everything about them, oh yes.....

my web design skills though are on a par with my synchronised swimming skills. Big Fat Zero. but given my background obviously I know everything even VAGUELY related to computers: all of it. (well it's on a computer so fix it!!)
