Thank you for the kindly votes of confidence!

Chilled,

Schwaben is one of the southern states making up the german federation, containing Stuttgart as its capital. It is famous for its fat, gutturally-grunting farmers and its national dish, Saumagen (pigs stomach) that Mrs T. famously refused to eat. M-B colours and heavy-jowled designs tend to reflect the national characteristic. cf. Borgwards & VWs from northern Lower Saxony; like the people and the language, they could more easily be mistaken for Dutch or even English...

A bag is rock n' roll false rhyming slang for a 'bag of sand - grand'.

P E is Polyuerethane; popular for bumpers and the like.

FREDS are Fuecking Ridiculous Electronic Devices; usually made by Robert Bosch GmbH and as stable as Adolf Hitler...

HTH!
I never understand every word of a Graves post.

This one is no different. 'M-B colours'

Lighten my darkness Nick

I never understand any words of Nicks posts The tone alone is enough to make me laugh though.

I have a theory he is in fact Carper in disguise (in a better thought out version of PS3fanboy)

Anyone seen them together ?

I find his prose compelling reading... but also disturbing.

I've never seen both of us together, either.

Now I'm worried...

Funny how one's expectations of how someone will look turn out to be completely wrong!!
