''Theorizing that one could time travel within his own lifetime, Swiss Cheddar II led an elite group of scientists into the desert to develop a top secret project, known as QUANTUM LEAP. Pressured to prove his theories or lose funding, Swiss Cheddar II, prematurely stepped into the Project Accelerator and vanished. He awoke to find himself in the past, suffering from partial amnesia and facing a mirror image that was not his own. Fortunately, contact with his own time was made through brainwave transmissions, with Peachy, the Project Observer, who appeared in the form of a hologram that only Swiss Cheddar II could see and hear. Trapped in the past, Swiss Cheddar II finds himself leaping from life to life, putting things right, that once went wrong and hoping each time, that his next leap will be the leap home.''

You've had a much busier day than me, all I've done is five loads of washing.

And once again I am completely in the dark, so I'll update my washing status. One load washed, dried and ironed

You are funny !! Don't worry, you are not alone. I have no clue what they are talking about either (but I havent made the effort to read the article to be honest.......).

Congratulations for your achievement by the way. I had my washing day yesterday and now I have a mountain of clothes on the sofa waiting to get ironed and so decorating my living room (and my parents are coming tomorrow to visit !).

Interesting stuff. I'll explain it at the next pub night.
