I had a framed site for years and it did not break anything, the
world went on fine and people got info from the web site and the
sun still shone. But it's ok I know what you are referring to.
All the ifs and buts and counterfactuals... I must make another
framed site one day for fun. But after I write up the essay on

You are a farmer right? Robust and all. So I add a little tip
that you and I might suggest to people but I would bet with

After the last pee at night, don't flush. Take a look in the
morning. If the bowl looks sparkling clean, the cistern is
leaking and you should fix it (often a worn seal)
