Thanks everybody for your replies:)

Jon G, you walked past the Matt McGinn pub??
Oh, to be able to be so blase. LOL

I dont know where the town of Effen is, just that Matt said, in his introduction, it was in France and yes,cobber, I didn't do the whole explanation bit as I heard it on the recording. :) I agree by the sound and spelling of the name that it's more likely to be in the Netherlands than France.
Peace, thanks for the URL:)
LOL, that would have saved me listening to it so many times to try to translate the word.,...Baton makes more sense that bat...jist couldn't work out what he was saying there!
