Oh, Aerbabe - you are obviously too young to remember the days when, if someone wrote a letter (snail-mail) to an agony-aunt in the back of a magazine, that the problem always purported to belong to the author's friend! I was just attempting to parody that. Given the less than totally anonymous nature of this particular forum, eg., quite a few of us know exactly who you are, where you live and your 'phone number - I thought it slightly more fun to pretend that a chum had to divert, when really it was me all along! Childish, I know - but the little boy is never very far from the surface!
Anyway - surely you have better/more fun things to do than peruse Pprune so early in the morning?
