  Reply | Contact Hi Filippo I am indeed lightweight by comparison to my unhealthy neighbours Boggy you are quite right I should put up and shut up! the problem is that my meagre financial resources are ample to live up here in the sticks, as there is no competition for land or houses, I would however dearly love to live down in your county in the stockbroker belt, if I do win the lotto, you can expect a slightly overweight Northerner as a near neighbour horses and all. digger
