Can I ask honest curious questions Reenie? It's just wee things that my mind thinks!

Nitrating the latter is best left to the loons (and I've known some); NO2 is given off in furious quantities. I've heard of fifteen year-old lads fleeing their bedrooms when reality hits home. Dad comes home to find he's lost his house and not a bailiff in sight. I know one that is missing his right...
