Gary, Now you're starting to make my eyes tear up with laughter. The gentleman with me is my dear 'ole hubby. And to answer your question, my 4'6 height would be relatvie from the ground on to the top of my head. I would be what people refer to as s-m-all!!!! No need to quit on my account. I'm having a grand time. Banter on.

Whew! I am glad you got it! I worried if I was too vague or not.

Gary, We could always list Linda's fine attributes one at a time or so as they come to mind, with appropriate brevity of course ;-) I'll start: 1. Professional 2. Witty 3. Wise 4. Experienced I am sure your brevity will be much more entertaining.

LOL, I know. I am out of matches too. I have a lighter though ;-)

Howdy David, Well, this part of the thread will probably embarass Linda. OK. I know I am jumping back into what I termed the "conga-line of back-slappers" (LOL) that I mentioned earlier but this lady deserves it. So, David, I'll happily follow your lead. I agree with all of those things that you listed, by the way. Forumites - you have all witnessed the quality of Linda's knowledge and work in some small way here. Well, I have seen this lady in full turbo mode and I must say Linda is one of the cleverest, most talented, sincere and honest people I know. Hmm. I'm not sure whether I should do this next bit but... what the heck, it's on my website anyway - so it's no huge secret. Here goes... (ahem)... ... I interviewed Linda some time ago for my "Achiever's Interview Series." Those who want can read the interview here: http://www.motivationselfesteem.com/A5-Achievers-Interview-Linda-Caroll.html Sorry Linda. But I'm damn proud to know you and I reckon all your wonderful values are highlighted in that interview. Don't be embarassed. Be proud of who you are. I am. Hey! What is it with this website? How come I keep getting asterisked when I use that word? Gary Simpson King Kong of the Congo (just this once)
