Dear Jackie,
Thanks - I have just had a quick look - How come you are charging £170 for a 24 minute video on a subject which must be about as popular as a Danish pastry at a Muslim teaparty. The number of people apart from myself that might be interested in that video you could count on one hand.Does the OU have shareholders now? Is Blair getting you ready to privatise?One more great institution laid low by greed and
committees.
Still have a nice day
Best Wishes
Douglas Mcleod

I now realise It is happening again. It happens every so often like my recurring limp.
I was reminded to check while reading the Insurance Brokers Forum on the 'Insurance Age' site just now and came upon the following posting from about a year ago by a Scottish insurance broker.
'is it just me or is there anyone else who adopts a Richard Wilson/Victor Meldrew voice when reading out douglas's musings'
I rushed to look at what Ive been writing lately and alas the dignosis is confirmed.
