Hold ALT, type 39 on the numpad, release ALT. It's started working again. Something to do with VirtualPC I think, I've noticed the guest OS getting mousewheel events despite being in the background too.

There once was an ugly duckling With feathers all stubby and brown And the other birds said in so many words Get out of town Get out, get out, get out of town And he went with a quack and a waddle and a quack In a flurry of eiderdown That poor little ugly duckling Went wandering far and near But at every place they said to his face Now get out, get out, get out of here And he went with a quack and a waddle and a quack And a very unhappy tear So a cook caught him, plucked him and cooked him for tea.

I don't think I've ever had duckling. Poussin, lots of, but duckling, I'm not so sure.

I stroked loads of ducklings in the Lake District, and reminding Miss Malabar about it makes her angry with jealousy.
Please, someone mention eating them at some point. I want to see her rage quit.

I like the look of the cheese.
I'm not paying £70 for 3 cheeses.

I am currently mostly looking forwards to the glass of lovely Port with the cheese, and then, in later life, having gout.
