Ken, Hope U enjoyed Xmas down under. My mate in Melbourne has filled me in previously & it doesn't sound much like the goings on in Blighty @ this time of yr - Xmas dinner on the beach, etc.My folks succumbed to some fairly heavy hints in Waterstones before Xmas & bought me 2 books U recommended - 'Good Vibrations' and compendium of Bill Bryson 'travelogues'. Only just started, but looking good. Thanks for the tip.Currently finishing off M.M's 'Stupid White Men' which is good, so 'Dude...' is up after that.Have an eventful 2004!!.Cheers. Mark.
