It's no use, Bags, I'm not coming out to play today!

Not aimed at you, lily. It's for general consumption, or to be ignored if no-one is interested. smile

Good article Bags. I particularly liked this bit:

I noticed that sentence in particular too, when, and liked it. Succinct and to the point, so a good 'definition' to use in answer to queries, I thought.
