                          Sorry Roehre, already covered by Michael in Post #78 (Page 2).
                          Give us another "S" please, and then we'll take Megan's Twelve Contredances, after that someone else has to post the "U". Hope that's clear!

                            In the meantime, everybody on hold please until we get Roehre's new "S".

                              We have time, no worries. Deadline for Roehre for a new "S" is 12h49.
                              If Roehre can't come up with another "S" we can all start to panic...
