Ha ha! It cracked me up! I loved those Stevie Wonder dreadlocks, and the bouncy Elvis. Squeek, squeek, squeek! ha ha! Sarcastic

That was a good laugh!

Saddo, indeed. Makes for an interesting time with some of the scripts I see.

"Saddo" is a popular expression used by teenagers over here to describe anyone of our generation. An "Old Saddo" being anyone over about 27 years of age.

I have a Barbour jacket which requires re-waxing every so often and having just performed the re-waxing process I am worthy of the epithet "Master Saddo 1st class".

I am a Grotty Saddo...I don't rewax my Barbour, and just let the rain soak through me ol' bones.

All you really have to do is eliminate the "was," leaving you with "Were it both."

Running gag ..............

This will appeal to Saddos.

I typed "If it was" in the subject line and intended to add ".....just your mic" but the typed "just your mic and equipment". This rendered the subject line grammatically incorrect. Don pointed out this error and so I changed it to "were it was" and then also added "both" and a third item to the list, thus compounding the error and adding to the general hilarity.

Parties at my place are fun. We read inkjet printer manuals and skip pages ...........Oh the larks and japes!!!
