    Thanks Pete, I'm going to look for a Stout or Dark Ale and if I can find something within budget and that looks nice something from the UK is in order.

        Did you read his link, I have no elephanting idea what that has to do with anything let alone what his text said.

          Reading the text I think You don't know me very well, following the link I think WTF does that mean in any context.

                        It's the first few minutes of Friday morning here in the best part of the world. ...my Mother died of Melanoma at the age of 40. With my little Sister dying of the same thing 7 years 8 months later at 28 I'm not a happy boy. So after work tomorrow and the drive back home from Canberra I'm going to smash a large chunk of Bundy Rum and whatever top shelf beer I buy. Elephanting sunshine of a life, I expect to post something angry and drunk in 18 to 20 hours from now.

                        Sorry to here that, but to quote the Bard od Springfield "To alcohol! The cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems" Well he was half-right, despite not being an iPhone developer (WTF was that about?).

                          Dealing with the loss of a loved one is never an easy elephanting task, Michael. :( At least, they are living in your memories, and that's a honour you're doing them, and it proves how much you love them. I can elephanting appreciate you for that. May life bring peace to you. :rose:

                                      It's the first few minutes of Friday morning here in the best part of the world. ...my Mother died of Melanoma at the age of 40. With my little Sister dying of the same thing 7 years 8 months later at 28 I'm not a happy boy. So after work tomorrow and the drive back home from Canberra I'm going to smash a large chunk of Bundy Rum and whatever top shelf beer I buy. Elephanting sunshine of a life, I expect to post something angry and drunk in 18 to 20 hours from now.

                                        Reading the text I think You don't know me very well, following the link I think WTF does that mean in any context.

                                          Sorry to here that, but to quote the Bard od Springfield "To alcohol! The cause of, and solution to, all of life's problems" Well he was half-right, despite not being an iPhone developer (WTF was that about?).
