# had a client who while going over some edits, once leant right over my shoulder
and asking me to move a symbol, said "Right about here" at the same time as he scribbled a little blue dot on my screen with a biro....... Upon taking him to task on this, he said he did it on his own screen all the time?

Some good alcohol based screen cleaner will remove permanent ink without damaging shiny screens.

# It could, but doesn't

I have seen Milka chocolate here, but not that one. I shall keep my eye out. Would you believe that I was in Switzerland for a whole week last year and didn't have any chocolate once? Same goes for the last couple of times I have been to Belgium. Silly Redsushi!
