    Repeat after me (to him obviously not me!)

    You know I love you so much. Having established that, you now have 10 minutes*. Then as you love me you must let me study so I can continue to keep you in the manner to which you are accustomed.

    * amend as applicable

    B :D

    Cheers Butti, it's him that keeps me in holidays! :rotfl:Hmm, glass of Baileys and here I go!

    Ask yourself if you can trust yourself to use it only for Emergencies - there's your answer. Some people can, others can't.
