Well, many thanks for all the wit, banter and kind words, folks. I've been away from the keyboard for a day (more of which anon), which will doubtless have pleased some...
I suspect that the original poster might have been from a little Friday night over indulgence and surfeit of mushy peas, a well-known Grimsby delicacy. In fact, probably the only Grimsby delicacy. Just hope the hangover was worth the hassle.
I was away from the keyboard due to a trip to the Smoke last evening to attend the premiere University Air Squadron's 70th anniversary bash. What a top night! Lots of excellent people including some well-known PPRuNErs as well! Supposed to end at 2030, I hear it was still going well at 0130..... But what the hell was in that purple drink..........??
