WOW thanks all, I appreciate the kind words and I love the mouse band too

So far I have flops on the flute... Febs on the tenor horn, me on the sax and corncrake on the banjo... who else wants to join? Oooo how about my favourite (what do you mean there is only one) Blimpy-bum on the accordion

I do have to say that I have been HAD!! Febs told me ages ago that my contract was up for review after 5,000 validations or 10 years, whichever came first... So off I go down all those stairs to the techy basement, after a crisp ration raise - nothing more (well and an extra bottle of whisky a week) and what does he say... That he said 50,000 vals *rolls eyes*
Back to the validations I go

Might check flops' desk for crisps first though, just in case
