SNIPPED

Having got that off my chest I will finish this nice glass of Californian
Red (yes, American. I don't believe in trade sanctions) and retire to bed.
Good night everybody.

Good morning Reg,

Oh Reg: I've spent more than a year building a mental image of the
gentleman englishman only to have it destroyed by "Californian Red".

A nice continental Sherry would preserve my image!

I use only a gram or two of altar wine once a day in the morning! To
each his own, but you do have to rebuild my image of you. :-)
