"Bradband" (of the BT standard variety - nothing too whizz) and there was hardly any delay in loading the whole page - PH often takes longer, even when someone's inserted only a medium size image.

(...and I'll one of whatever you're having)

5 secs on 512Kb broadband here...

The bad news is that I know my connection is 15x faster than my old dial-up turkey (as it had a DACS splitter in the line). Hence, a few months ago, it would have taken me over 60 secs!!

Looks nice though!

Edited to say: Preferred has two 'R's!
