Inglenook - try it out first,,

[MalcolmInN]

Not sure if this should be in the Layout Planning section, or Other Hobbies 
or maybe just divertimentii in General

Lots of interest on the forum recently about Inglenooks (as always ) so here is one where you can try it out in your Internet Explorer browser window. @Simon.
Sadly it (still) does not work in Firefox and clones but otherwise very clever bit of Javascripting @cjbeattie

The advantage of the one I suggested is that old fogies stand a chance of being able to see what is going on on a proper big screen without first having to find where they last put their spectacles       

Quite why anyone would want to do anything else with their tiny wee thing other than 'phone a friend' (other programs are available)  escapes me,,, so there 

ducks&runs  Oh ! Hang on,
what's that you say , ,

and soon Mac & PC)

Ah that sounds good, more promising than when I last suggested it to you !!!!!!!!! So you think there might be a market after all !
