Hello Roy,

There have been times during my life when I've had free access to the
Internet.  Even today I suppose I could access it at the local public
library or on the college campus.  More importantly though, I never claimed
to live in poverty: that was your suggestion.  Without going into
unneccesary detail, suffice to say that I earn less now than I did ten
years ago and my disposeable income is spread thinly, so I have to
prioritise with care and save with patience.

I'll definitely have a look at their refurbished stuff then, perhaps I can
save a bit and have a new radio sooner.
