Sameemeememe here in Ireland, just a few..ew.ewew seconds beyond you, me I, thou, it., us $?%%@@@.... Ahem! Clear the hard drive throat. Well everything is working fine here, so far, ....so long, a longer way to gooooooo.... Anyway lots of us good people on the island were real suspicious about the whole thing because of one of the Government millenium freebies to the Kats of the Celtic Tiger. This was a "Millenium Candle" which we were all supposed to light and place in our front windows on the night. Well they got it wrong from the beginning. Firstly the candle would not fit through any of the mail boxes. Then people started to get realy worrried when the main electricity supplier took radio adverts over the last week saying that the power supply was Y2K compliant and that it would function. Hmmmm got this candle from the Government and everyone is reassuring me? Hmmmmmm.... My local shop was out of matches by 5 p.m. There's confidence for you! Happy new millenium! STORM
