Excellent MV,
Exactly the right amount of detail required.  Thanks.

I've saved the link in case I need to check again any time and I've also forwarded it to #2 son (Student Nurse) in case he needs to refer to it for his studies.

It actually works perfectly, given that its aim is to transfer money from the pockets of the gullible to those of the morally questionable.

It can save money: my hot drinks are homeopathic due to a special cup that needs only hot water to inherit the qualities of the various beverages that have been in it some years ago.
I find that tea, coffee, milk, sugar etc. last so long that I've not had to buy any for years.

Doesn't seem to work too well for caffeine though...

I've become an expert by glancing briefly at MV's post.

Sounds like you overdosed - I merely needed to glance at The Pub board index page.  ;)

I think it involves getting it on with a member of the same sex, so it works, but not for having babies.  Unless you're Elton John.

Nice! Until I read the Link carefully and slowly I had assumed that a person unknown was impersonating MV. Phew. All is well.

I didn't need to look at the post, just a picture of it.

I did look at the post, but I didn't really need to. 
Having met MV a couple times, there is sufficient residue of his image on my retinas for me to feel what he's posting at any time.
In fact, the reason I don't log on here much these days is because although I've only met 20-30 of you, those people have generally seen lots of others, or others that have seen other others.

I'm totally in touch.  :thumbsup:

People have suggested that the less I post the more effective it is.

Absolutely correct, Roger.

I'll not be there until tomorrow's quiz.  But don't worry, I've got an old Old Speckled Hen glass here at home.  I just pop out to the Kitchen occasionally to top up with water.

Ah, but do you ride a Brompton or a recumbent?
