Hello miniMia. Thank you for taking time out to reply. Most welcome. You're the second message I've received, the first being one to tell me I'd been filed in Junk - a trifle off given I'd only just joined... But hey, got to learn the etiquette. Like for example one of the few locals to visit us so far has been a toad the size of a satellite dish. My wife got down to introduce herself and it promptly, well, did a Number 1 all over the garage floor. Is this a typical local greeting? And the VD thing is even more embarrassing if you want to take your car back to the UK. Which I did recently. Why don't the Swiss don't do personal number plates? Enjoy your afternoon.
