Actually, yes, but Ming and Markos have told me not to tell anyone else what happened.

Ah, more like the nuisance/bother ratio breached a certain treshold. And I need the change.

Why am I explaining this to anyone?

Okay John, I'll add you later.

Big Crunch- the reason I say that is I dont think Holland is a province of the netherlands, I think it is also known as THE NETHERLANDS... And I had a short discussion with a Dutch apolytoner about that- I'll take his word for it since he lives there, but seeing a pencil produced there that confused (with both names?), confuses me

Actually, Holland IS a province of the Netherlands, it is in fact 2 provinces: North Holland and South Holland (they used to be a single province)...

But either way, 'made in Holland' is a stupid phrase as they put that on most Dutch products, even those not actually made in Holland but in some other part of the Netherlands

Darkcloud, it seems to me you are using MS Word to compile this list. I think you should learn to work with MS Access, you'll find it a lot easier to create databases for your lists.

If it's a province, it would be like calling Sagacious Dolphin a Geordie/Brummie/Scouser*.

None of those are particularly insulting after being told you come from Kunt.

Talking of which, Trevor McDonald also once claimed the Best Wank to be a hotbed of violence.
