Just an on and off button and a channel switch button and a volume up and down button. That's all you need. Don't let anybody talk you into anything else. You don't want too complicate something that should be entertaining. Is there any science to be learned in washing and drying clothes? Surely it has its educational purposes?Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05043376053971475659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1686467686335484826.post-86126116045009505512008-12-01T00:59:00.000-08:002008-12-01T00:59:00.000-08:00I enjoy your blog tremendously, but that`s because...I enjoy your blog tremendously, but that`s because my children are grown and I survived and can now lean back and have fun with your experiences!

Lesson one goes well, and all the girls scurry off home to practice on their own vehicles.<BR/>As the second class begins, the instructor asks, "Any questions?"<BR/>A quivering hand is raised at the back of the class. "Can you please explain how to open the bonnet?"<BR/><BR/>I don't drive, so that one would stump me too.Mr Fartyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09181992797303553788noreply@blogger.com
