I've got 3 Mice,Mouses,Meeces.  2 wireless ones and a tatty old one that plugs into the ps2 port by cable, that I got free off the internet. Guess which one I use?


       No!!!! I use the 5 button wireless laser optical mouse of course.

        No I just said that for fun.   I use me old tatty one. Problem is the retaining
plate has started to become loose. In the middle of intricate work with the lasso
tool the ball drops out.

           I have also been playing with a Graphics tablet and pen, But no way can I
blame any of them for PUTTING the wrong colour on PollDolls dress!!!!

          It's ALL POLLDOLLS FAULT,  So There. Tongue Tongue Tongue Tongue Tongue

mines a tatty old one too...the ball either drops out...refuses to budge...or goes the opposite way....

I changed the bulbs in the studio and the dress became palest pink...but I didn't like it so it stays as is....sorry Pol  Grin...artistic licence and all that Tongue Tongue Tongue

Carefully remove the ball.   Inside you will see 2 rollers and a small wheel.
    Dirt, gunk and fluff could have accumulated on them.
     Very carefully with a small knife or nail file clean the rubbish off.
 Can take some dexterity as they are not only spring loaded but move of course
when you touch them. Carefully clean the ball as well.

        Never thought to put a bulb in the light socket. wonder if they sell them at Morrisons?

   Well I did have it checked by the  Pink Institute Tonal Society (P.I.T.S.)
         They said it was near enough and as you lot are obviously colour blind
 it didn't really matter.      They also said that it was apparent that I was in the pink
    and that I had such a rosy glow about me.

so did I. Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked Shocked Grin Grin Grin Grin

Oh dear ...have I said something wrong Huh lol   You know very well Tomkin that just because you are the chief of T.W.I.T.S.S.  doesn't mean you have to make me wear THAT pink !! It was enough to make anyone blush... In fact I nearly said to you that your scanned rose was nearest to the colour ...on its palest bits !! Great scan btw !!

Can you be more specific on the yellow, I might have a go at changing the colour, maybe if you go to that colour chart and give us the exact shade of yella then we can make it something like it.

Did your sister also confirm the colour of your hair and eyes?

Alas and alack, we have cheddar but I always eat the Kerrygold red chedder, sure it ain't that colour, and we don't have primroses, and as for bananas, well we had a bit of a cyclone a few months ago and all the banana trees ( I know they ain't trees but herbs) got knocked down, and although we still have bananas, us common folk can't afford them, at about $15:99 a kilo, but I will sneak up the grocers and try and peak at them, behind the security fences they are putting up to stop us starving people from pinching them. I do have some Loquats and cumquats fruiting in my garden is that close enuff, sort of orangy colour.
