You're correct, when we created some Christmas smilies, we placed them immediately after the 'most used list', and before the existing alphabetic list.
Best wishes,
Hans

So let me guess: In Eileen's Lounge, Christmas is neither a movable smilie NOR a moveable feast? :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Thanks Hans

We hope so, after all it's important to be Earnest.

A married couple can be frank and earnest. Although some people prefer one to be a woman.

If Earnest was angry, he'd say "Let's be Frank", incensed. Mur-der might follow.

I'm sorry, but I fail to see what this has to do with Mylar sheets :evilgrin: :evilgrin:

I have been following this thread and some other one and now I am compelled to ask you Chris, what are these lar sheets you keep talking about. I do believe I remember reading somewhere that your Lar sheets could keep you warm but that's all I seem to be able to find out. You do keep referring to them as YOURS so, I had to ask. A Google search for Lar Sheets doesn't help either. OH well, Merry Christmas and do keep warm MySalute. :cheers: :cheers: :flee: :flee:

Yep and Chris may not like it if I had said MyLar sheets when I asked my question since they are HisLar.

On the off-chance that you really are confused, and neither pulling my leg nor jerking my chain, here is a link to a chain of hardware stores in Canada in both French (well, Quebecois, actually) and English (well, Canadian, eh?)
Cheers, Chris

I was just joking around but thank you for the link. I should look for something like that at Amazon for gift presents. Doesn't look like it would take up a lot of space inside a vehicle.

Two notes of caution:-

(1) These $5 blankets fail miserably as electromagnetic wave (light) blockers; heat radiation is still just another form of electromagnetic wave.

(2) Suggesting that this Christmas you are hoping that your friends/family have a breakdown at 2am on top of the moors could be depressing. :xsad:

I don't want to hope anyone has a breakdown especially at 2:00 AM. What time is that? I thought those kind of hours went out of style years ago.
