If you care to scroll back to the top of this thread, you will find that I had indeed been referring to expert level when discussing personal records.

Typical bloke, memory of a whateveritwas.

Oh, I know what you mean. Can't remember what it's called though.

Surrealist joke:

"John, John, I can't feel my wheels !"
"That's because you're a fish."

Why do you get so many fish in surrealist jokes? I can think of plenty of things more surreal than fish.

1. David's aardvark.
2. Mike Stannett's CD (you can borrow it if you really want... but I wouldn't actually recommend it!)
3. The "Liberator" handgun bra and matching knickers.
4. Wilfred's poetry.
5. The collection of Cthulhu pictures on www.nyder.com.
6. Paul Darrow's paint-it-yourself garden gnome.

These are in no particular order of surreality.

Ok good thinking there, especially the Liberator undies. When will Dave be selling them ?

You'd have to ask Alan - he owns the copyright. ;-)

Alan and whoever designed the handguns in the first place -Jim Francis ? When are you going to make your prototype set ?

I think Alan is too busy writing his book at the moment.

Let me rephrase that. I _hope_ Alan is too busy writing his book at the moment! ;-)
