Hello All, well, I am really in DC this week. Too much fruit & veg processing has addled my brain, it is defeating me despite all your hints, pdm is so far removed it is probably sitting in drb's yard (welcome back by the way, how was the outback, sorry, the New World rather than the Down-under edition?) Am I right in thinking it has something to do with a certain well sung about letter, and the omission thereof?
Indeed DocHH we were tutored well at the Establishment were we not? No matter how many sheets were to the wind, it was not considered good form to waste an alcoholic beverage. Incidentally, mentioned the Purple O to another wastrel from L and he went into raptures about how awful it was!! Do you also remember the Harlequin and the Wheatsheaf?
