because I worked really hard on this post and want to keep this thread as focused as possible. As soon as people start straying from the original intent here, no one will take it seriously. Thank you 😉 ---

Hi! Yes, the intent is focussed. But seriously, no one will start straying because people worked really hard here. This post, possibly, I want to keep. Just as soon, Jack will take it from you! This thread, as original as it is, don’t please. ---

Oh dear. Why, that is a bother. I had so hoped that I might hijack this thread to Cuba. I thought that I might try and sun myself on the beach all day and drink Gin and Tonic all night.
