    Hiya STM, Welcome to the Inn. Now you see the thing with 'virtual' drinking is that is is calorie free and no money required either :beer:

    Hi there Wishes

    In that case make mine a double- I'll need it as I just found out I'm entitled to £8/wk JSA..
    Shame I couldn't persuade the banks to accept 'virtual' payment!
    Take care :beer:
