Chuff charts

I’m still waiting for someone to explain what a chuff chart is or to confirm that what I described is in fact an example of said beastie!

For my part I never bothered about how long I had left as it seemed like clock watching on a grand scale.  After all, part of Einstein’s ’General Theory of Relativity’ says quite clearly that ’Time expands, slows down and generally becomes more tedious the more one watches it’.  

TC.
For the benefit of those who cannot read this is a big smile:-  
(Well, if they can’t read they won’t know whether or not it’s a smile will they?)

Once a Lancer, always a Lancer!

nothings impossible, to the person that doesn`t have to do it.
