'anorak' - ?
>
Bob - NO, I'm determined that when I reach that "certain age" (it's a fair
way off yet) I'm not going to go to M&S and buy "one of those casual
jackets" which seem to be the standard uniform for all men who have passed
60 ! (or wear Val Doonigan button-up jumpers, slippers outdoors, or a hat
when I'm driving !).

It's the detail Bob - the devil is in the detail - the trick is knowing when
to say X happened because you KNOW X happened and when to say I think X MAY
have happened because someone told me it did, but maybe it didn't, and maybe
someone else knows better. Even worse are the make it up as you go along
brigade who will tell you black is white, and if you don't know better
you'll believe them. (I'm not risking pack-drill on that one so "me say
nothing" !).

Anyway - look here ! - back to the point - someone, somewhere, knows where
there is a 'photo of UC 63 - and I want it. Stop everything and go out and
scour the streets - don't come back till you've found it (take an anorak -
it might rain ! :-) !)
