Liked your post about the Bachchan ad. He should just tell the minister guy where to hide the cigar!

Sir Couch, thank you kindly. I apologise for the delay in replying - I was temporarily amnesia-stricken and couldn't remember my blasted user name. *sigh*

Ph, you startled me - in the nicest way. Thank you, and will post soon, now that it's all come back. :)
