Hi Joe!
It's my metabolism, or something. re. the Euro? Hmm, I can't say too much in case the FA fines me again for going off-topic, but I am definitely 'pro'. (Liverpool still has bomb-damaged buildings from the two-week German blitz of May, 1941 in which 4000 civilians died in the resulting firestorm. Anything which further seals future European peace and co-operation, after centuries of insane territorial wars, has to be a good thing, I reckon.)
Can you visit at the same time as Jim? It would reduce the taxi fares...
Sorry to hear about 'Good dog Nigel' (Did I ever quote you that John Lennon poem of that name? If not, now is perhaps not the best time to repeat it.)
Best to you too...
