    <laugh><laugh><laugh> Who luvsya baby!
    Only one logical answer, Ron= Prostitution (the first profession).
    But one inventive suggestion = Politician <laugh>
    PS. I always liked riddles- my father used to give me them as a youngster. I remember one he gave me….
    A man has two coins which add up to 3p and one of them isn’t a 1p.
    What are they?

    <applause> That’s right Oddy and the ‘alternative’ answer.
    The normal answer is…
    One of them isn’t a 1p. The OTHER ONE is!
    PS. I’ll have to get Ron with another riddle.
    You’re too quick for him in the morning.
    I hope you are keeping well.

    All good thanks Tam. Looking forward to the Christmas break to re-charge the batteries, it’s been a long year. My idea of the Arkle winner running at Sandown tomorrow - JPR One.

    How are you doing? Your references to Burnley reminds me of a mate at University who always said “Did you not?” <laugh><cheers>

    “Did you not?” Yeah, I’m familiar with that but not one of my expressions. Where did your uni. mate come from?
    My German lecturer said there were more dialect changes from Lancashire’s west coast to the Yorkshire border than anywhere else in Britain. “ Ain’t that reight?” is one of my nephew’s favourite sayings but I don’t care for it. <laugh>
    I must admit that the nephew I refer to - and his dad - speak differently from me, even though they were born only three miles from my birth home and two hundred yards from the Burnley boundary ie. Padiham.
