Thank you so much Peter. Missed you - I thought you had fallen off the face of the earth.A very happy St. Patrick's Day to you too, and to all on the BB. I'm looking forward to having a day off work. It's usually a wet and windy day here in Dublin, so I'll watch the Parade from the comfort of my armchair beside a blazing turf fire. By the way, I discovered something interesting from a historical document I read recently. Do you know who was the first person from Columbus's expedition to set foot on American soil? It was an Irishman named Patrick Maguire, and apparently he was so excited that he jumped into the shallow water and waded ashore. Why does that please me so much? I was born a Maguire, and formerly worked as a travel agent and tour guide, so it seems rather appropriate that a distant ancestor was also involved in the travel business!(Maybe he brought the IBS gene to America!)------------------Phyllis
