    Oh yes, spud, you've definitely got the skills set required - proved by you not having run away screaming at the job description. Remember, if he asks you if you have any questions at the end of the interview - you can't go wrong asking about car mats. :D

    LMAO at first I thought the scally scouser was giving away the secret recipe for the perfect saveloy :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    But I see he's up to something else :think: far more legal and more interesting to a vegetarian like me ;)

    I've got a little bit of news on my debt front for you SS :j And if I can help you help me too, that would be useful so drop me a line when you're back again :D
