The very idea that I sound like a … a… CORKMAN fills me with disgust. 😃 - Just for the record, he’s a big bear of a fella, and a lovely person. **twisty** - Been a while since I needed to slip down a drainpipe. Unfortunately. ---

**Mangetout** - James Robertson Justice **London\_Calling** - Sid James **Gary Kumquat** - Billy Connelly **Owlstretchingtime** - Richard Littlejohn And **Twisty** reckons I sound like Johnny Ball. Oddly, when I read my own posts I kinda get a Eddie Hitler vibe. ---
