Terry, given the increasing use of touch screens, and the decreasing accessibility of especially White goods, I think it's a technology related debate that does no harm.

Personally I've always been of the view that if I want something I have to be able to afford it especially if it relates to my personal life, which I guess is the same as so many other people with all kinds of other "disadvantages". Look I don't want to rev up a grant debate here all I'm saying is that sometimes its easy to mump on the grant band wagon without seriously taking a look at what we are actually asking for in the context of reality! Anyway don't want to clutter the list with this and sorry if my first post was a touch controvercial. Terry Clasper.
