  Hey Rabbitt, many thanks for the memory,
  Went to Devon years ago, saw a plaque with those words on it,bought it cos it was nice, but had no idea what it meant,

  Later that day on a trip out was looking for toilets,
            a group of other trippers walking behind, one shouted loudly and pointed out "Yer Tiz2"
               
I howled with laughter, thanks  Dolly

Hi Trevor,

I was laughing too! It is easy to let other people do all the work, only by your own experience can you learn things. ::) I am sure that you know that anyway!  I will help all I can but that is not the same thing!
 
You can't upset/offend little me, life is too short for that!  I have a huge sense of humour!
I do hope that you enjoy the stories on those sites.
