Sorry - didn't know that. But your name isn't exactly typical English, so does it come from somewhere else?

Just because a thing is new don’t mean that it’s better - Will Rogers, September 4, 1932My Nom-de-Net is hungarian, it was assumed as a joke when I moved to Hungary in 1997 and it's kinda of hung around. Nagy is a very common surname and the word means Big, and Vilmos is just hungarian for William my real name.

You drink so much in your early years that you die before you make a dent in the statistics. Sorry. :rose:

Sometimes I drive to Luxembourg to buy absinthe and I guess that I'm not the only one. Low taxes => alcohol tourism. Also, there are a lot of rich people in Luxembourg. What would you do if you own over a billion euro's in stocks? Hire a driver and be drunk for the rest of your life, that's what.

They made Luton a principality, so that its figures wouldn't be added to England's. Add the two together, and they're off the top of the chart.

We retired from the competition after winning it 5 years on the trot - it was time to let someone else have a turn at winning it. Now we just sit on the sidelines (drink in hand) and kibitz

Now that's interesting, and it comes at a crucial time in my life. I've been seriously considering cutting back on my consumption, but our team obviously needs my support. Thanks for saving me from a grievous error!
