thank you sunny dave danny kay and jj 109 (when i was a youngster during the war a 109 was a messerschmidt german figter plane!!)
that is a completely new meaning for me, i have to confess that i have never heard of it used in that sense, i did latin greek and french at school but i cannot recall coming across that one. mind you when i was at school that was such a long time ago that i may have simply forgotten. thanks again to you all
