@steveshanks: What coal mines (I thought Maggie shut them all down)? And as for Chirac's comments on British food, I might agree with him as soon as the French learn how to bake bread that isn't long, thin, hard and useless after a day. /me runs away, with French stick in hand, hoping to beat Chirac over the head with it. Ooooh - there's an idea for a Poser picture.... (Errrmm .. is that On Topic enough??) Cheers, Diolma
