Excellent indeed.

If anyone here has Facebook, could I suggest that you leave a comment, and include the link to this forum, as at least one of the commenters said that TP is one of his favourite authors.
Some are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon them.

The rest of us are a bit crap.

It's a popular expression over here, it's what I call Our Sadie :D Luckily she has a sense of humour (so I tell her she's not a real God botherer).
