Excellent ... I've pinched that for further distribution

It reminds me of my father's constant direction - "If I've told you once, I've told you a million times - don't exagerate!"

Cheers - John

 Running foul of the grammar gestapo is bad enough but worse still are the comma coppers and the apostrophe apologists!
