@Weissdorn - wow! I am impressed but I shouldn't right? :)
@Barb -actually I was thinking after pressing the post button that I might be at trouble, writing it while at work enjoying my first coffee :) but I did need a nice start for the day, it was in the end Monday :)
I'm glad you have no unhappiness to report.

@Jo - yes it was
@Frizzy Hooker - strange, the double click appears as well, must look at the html coding, thanks!

@Jenn - yes, the only theme so far which did not fit my mood
@Kathy - I'm happy I could help a bit

@November Rain - thank you!
@Jenn & Casey - not my best, but still managed!

It reminds me of a poster I saw in college using another word.
