Have you still got my home address?   

I got a couple of T-shirts, 6 more Newton Chambers Motorail wagons and 6 more Motorail carflats. I bought all the wagons for myself of course.
Off to Bristol in a minute to drink lots of beer, see Ruzz Guitar perform in the Old Duke, drink more beer, stop overnight and come home tomorrow to test my wagons whilst possibly drinking more beer.

Also went to see Devizes Town FC thrash local rivals Calne Town 4-1 yesterday (whilst drinking plenty of beer) where I also won £50 in their monthly lottery which I immediately told them to keep and put into the club funds.

All in all not a bad Christmas break

I've been on RMWeb a bit too much, probably!

Ah, that explains things then!
No worries, enjoy the rest of the holidays.

I knew that, which is why I told the OP that in my first post. IDK why it was ever questioned.  Possibly because I was more interested in answering his original question rather than demonstrating how clever I was as a historian

Drat. I'd have put money on beige  

I thought beige was one of those auto-moderated words. Should never be mentioned on a family forum.

Last time I had mead was at a medieval banquet at Coombe Abbey some 40 years ago. I suspect, like Chris, it would be on a banned list for me now
