No need to apologize; some of us post drivel all the time, not just when we're near a post-count threshold. :D

Oh, and Congrats! :party:
We should now have a contest for the title of "Undisputed Drivel Champion" :lol:

Way to go JB.

Been a long time coming but you got there in the end.

Loved and thought himself beloved,
From a glad kindness cannot take his eyes.

Tell us something.: Been a fluter, citternist, and uilleann piper; committed now to the way of the harp.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

BTW better make it a generous fitting smoking jacket. I normally put on a couple of sizes whenever I visit Cornwall. :thumbsup:
Are you here yet? Were you that bugger who cut me up on the M5 near Taunton this affie? I was in the red Peugeot 106... Grrr... :x :evil: :moreevil:

Not guilty. I'm coming down on Saturday. I've never travelled that way on a weekend before, can't say I'm looking forward to that bit. Rest assured red Peugeot 106s will be granted right of way. :wink:
