G'day Jeeneia,

Methinks you should join us, to avoid the GUEST tag. By the time I'd written enough to reply to your original request, every man and his dog had beaten me - so I didn't post.

I assume you are from the US of BA? You have certainly put the partridge in the porrige and got the Pongolians stirred up. Ain't the English language grand for getting us all totally confused. We could add Plods, Fuzz, Beagles etc.. to the Pied Piper's list of names used for the Constabulary - and add a thread for the derivation of each name.

Talking of thread - avoid Crimplene - as my old Nana said - always wear WOOL next to your skin......

Cheers - Sam (NZ)
