Hi Daniel,
You devil you! ;-)
My instant re-action was not to cut my throat and fall over dead! :-)

But smile a smile, enjoy a laugh, shed a small tear that slowly decended my 
cheek at the thought of such a desecration!... Yet feel good because I felt 
someone cared enough to pull my leg in jest! And I enjoyed the moment 
smilingly! Needed something like that these days! :-(

Then reached  for my bottle of Lagavulin as it proudly stood tall in the 
rack. But shivering in fear at the thought of a relative bottle of such 
wonderful taste may die a slow and agonizing death as it struggled to free 
itself from the smoothering fizz of a sickly sweet gaseous liquid of the 
nether world.  :-)

So I gave it a hug of comfort, replaced it gently to it's rightful location 
as King of the single malt collection behind the bar. I swear it smiled 
back, but I'm sure it sounded like tiny toes tapping on the shelf with joy 
in anticipation of Christmas to come!:-)

Good day to all and enjoy your weekend before Christmas..

OH AND ONE LAST THING! HAVE YOU SUBMITTED YOUR TWO PHOTOS YET?  GOTTCHA! ;-)

cheers,
ted
