"On that basis anything 4yrs old is worthless so is not worth insuring which is clearly not correct."
"as a genral rule of thumb it will devalue at 25% each year. if you do manage to find one that do new for old your premiums are going to be sky high "
"market value sounds quite fair really. If your car gets nicked, you won't get a brandnew one back!!

"We tend to finish cutting very early in November unless specifically asked not to, so all our lawns are really ready for a cut. Plus the weeds are starting and the flowers are beginning to bloom so plenty to do. It's good to be back to it"
"hi yes done several 1st cuts already, especially those which didn't get a late cut in November, really needed it"
Have many started cutting lawns yet?We went out on Monday March 2nd. I was slightly apprehensive about whether the ground would be too wet or if the grass would have grown enough to warrant a cut, but all absolutely great. Ground plenty firm enough…

You've done it with the link off your name in the comment, if that's what you mean.
And Tags are available to the originator of the blog post or forum message, and you can add as many as you want but I'd say five or six maximum.
Again might have got wrong end of the stick, if so just shout.
Craig
I am not sure if Craig has managed to get on-line as yet. I met with him on Tuesday and France Telecom had promised to have him up and running by Wednesday - I haven't seen him around as yet.
A summary of what you should be doing:
1. Go to the page you wish to link to. Right click in the address bar and click 'select all'. When the address turns blue right click again and click copy.
2. Go back to the forum or blog post you wish to embed the link into. If you haven't already done so, write the text and then highlight the word(s) you want to use as anchor text, go up to the chain link in the tool bar, click and then insert the copied URL into the text box and click OK. Save post.
Let me know if you have followed this procedure the same way?

Phil, I'm uploading this comment before I check to see if link works (got a feeling it won't) must be to do with my computer? --- I'll try another site/page I did have success with about a month ago --- stiga pro 55 4S --- If that one has worked, and the Prince Charles one hasn't then maybe its the later's page. - I'll get there.
Taking a look at the link you have embedded in 'this bit' for your Prince Charles piece it seems you have pasted the http:// twice.
Make sure you delete the http:// that is automatically added to the URL pop up
This is how your link looks like - http://http//news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/8113680.stm
It is the same for the stiga pro 55 4S link - http://http//products.stiga.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?langId=-1&storeId=12601&catalogId=12051&productId=208117&categoryId=12671&top_category=12653
Hope that helps
