Thanks for that MrP. I think the comments of all posters here says something about them, that I have never seen on another thread. By not treating 'other posters' as the ememy, and genuinely sharing ideas and thoughts, it is possible to improve everybody's lot, whilst enjoying general chit-chat and 'off-the-subject' conversation. I also think the unstated competition, over the year, adds a certain extra meaning to what we are trying so hard to do. Well done.
I am not sure what my mid-day position was, but I do believe it was in the blue. As I've only just finished clearing away the decs, and helping the memsahib with the clearing up after, I have not had much chance to do any more than a cursary glance, so now I will have a better look. fh
