Ok, fair enough, there's no need to shout! However, the "textbook" definition doesn't always necessarily apply to artistes does it? Well, what I mean is, Stuart is allowed to interpret such words into his own meaning (and language obviously :|), as I distinctively remember when he and Isobel were staying at ours, and we first heard "Pastie" and asked him what the title meant, he said " it's something like the apathy of the middle-class". He said it! PROMISE! Let's not be angry anymore ... please? Cheers, Katrina. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- .
