| In cahoots? One thing you should know about me is that I absolutely abhor cheating of any kind. Even as a kid, if I thought an adult was letting me win at something, I'd stop playing.
So, no, I'm not in cahoots with anyone.

| If cash had changed hands then it wouldn't be cheating it would be a contract!
None has of course, unless it's in the post...

That comes under 'performance' in my list and adds to the fuel efficiency and reliability. ________________________________________________________________________________ www.alpinegrovetouringpark.com
