That may have been for the better anyway Ronnin, you mentioned catching up for a "wee hurl." Where I am from a 'hurl' is to vomit and if that was your intention you may have been disapointed - you know how weak stomached the English are, give em a few pints of Scottish beer and I'm afraid you may have seen a "fookin huge hurl.'

Next time, get some BabyCham in and they may only hurl a wee bit. :twisted)
