Aye, and remember the days when you could go to the chippie for "a tanner
o' chips 'n' a cod for a bob... any batter bits, mate?"  Oh the good old
days, now I'm REALLY homesick... I should never have mentioned the chippie.
Next I'll be thinking of Marston's Pedigree... ARGH NO!  Now I've done it!

Anyway, its really nice to see articles from netlanders back home in good
old Great Britain, now I'm glad I subscribed to this newsgroup!  Ta, mates!
