Chris, thanks for the generous offer. I should warn you that, because I'm descended from Aberdonian folk - many of whom eventually starved to death on "Pay as you leave" buses - there's a very real danger of my taking you up on this! :D

Toga party for the whole forum is it? Excellent! We'd better bring Terry along as the voice of common sense and restraint. :lol:

Right, I'll just grab me a Party Seven and be on my way down then :D

Bugger... they don't make it anymore do they..... tell you what chaps, if you can hold off a few weeks I may be able to rustle up a couple of bottles of 'shine from a few basic kitchen items.

It be safe enough, I haven't lost me sight yet :drool: and apart from having developed a liking for the song Copperhead Road it doesn't seem to have done me any real harm 8-)

If any law enforcement type bodies are reading this I have course never made strong liquour cos that would be illegal now wouldn't it :cry: :roll: :lol:

You really don't know me very well ;)
