Thanx for not unfriending us 'UJ" :-)

But unless something happens to fix these, still ongoing problems with viewing CBN, they face a real possible of being unfriended! :-{

Please don't unfriend me 'UJ', I didn't mean to "criticise" your spelling :-D
Comment by Uncle John on November 9, 2020 at 11:18am

I am unfriending anyone who criticizes  my spelling.   ;)

Comment by AGP # on November 9, 2020 at 10:08am
"Thanks Ambrose", the Aussie (and English) spelling Aluminium, and pronounced Alyouminum in the land down under, while in the States the spelling is Aluminum, and I thinks is pronounced Aloooooooooooooooooooooooooominum ;-D

"Thanks UJ", the Dumpster save was made by my eldest Son some years back, and I still have a healthy supply of the stuff left, and yep!, I too like the Walnut Wood Stain, I think it really suits the "Aluminium" :-)

Yes indeed... Quite like the way you spell it, Unc J... aluminum or aluminium... or "ally"...  whatever suits, ha.
