    LOL. I want one for my door. Does it go bing, or does it go bong?

    I want one that lowers a drawbridge.

    Wonderful wit! But is the 'door furniture' a push button, or a pull the tassel? Or maybe pull the other one? LOL

    Unlike Doctor FTSE, I want one that raises the drawbridge! Life was more peaceful before phones, fridges that beep when you are too slow closing the door, other stuff that blings and dings to keep you dashing about worrying that you are not quite perfect or efficient, so even if there is a spare minute, it cannot be enjoyed without the ears being pricked, waiting for the next summons.

    Dr. FTSE sent me here to see your take on the Joneses. My poem is about them - that's hilarious. Now I know what I'll do with that one more dollar :)
