LOL, yes, finding half a maggot's worse than finding a whole maggot! Had a chuckle at this - Whisky M would have just gone on munching

I have found out another word that has such a different meaning to the Brits, must make a poem from it lol:-) Yes we do have great difference in our pronunciation of certain words:-) hugs Jan xx

Lol...don't let one bad apple spoil all the others! In some countries you don't get worms for free; you pay for them:) Hugs // paul
