To send that reply you didn’t think of…

Oh, never mind, I was too late with my reply anyway.

Grandad,

It’s never too late you know?

It might have been, although the story I found was at least a month to a month and a half old when I found it.

Ah well, at least now I can use it for research – well, when I actually need to do research that is!

PS: ty for the welcome!

Welcome TheChrisD!! I don’t know the workings of the site as I wasn’t a frequent visitor [I suppose that has to change now?!]. Is it possible that your mother viewed that page the following day, after it had become archived or something? I dunno. At least there will be no more links on blogs marked “Subscription required”…

So the paper’s free now, eh? Still doesn’t explain why a couple of months back I was able to look up an article from the paper on the site, and yet when I tried to link it to my mother, she was greeted with a screen saying “Subscription needed to view”. Weird

Well, congratulations, oh Elite One. Hmm, sounds like some kind of tag line.

Of course sending them a reply saying; “Thanks for the info, I shall be sure to alert the media…” is most likely a bit superfluous at this point I suppose. Awful good of you not to let this go to your head. Are you sure you want to continue to associate with us non-elites? Might tarnish your reputation and all that.

I’m honored to know you sir.

We are indeed, Sam. Most of the addresses were in RTE, with quite a few of the mainstream media [papers, radio stations and the like] but there were about six bloggers. I had to laugh when I saw Twenty and myself in there.
