    Simon or garfunkel. i can't make up my mind. I choose garfunkel cos it's a funny name!

    EDIT: Apologies DesF, I'm very impressed that you're a watership down fan. i got really in to the book when I was younger. The film upset me a lot though and I'm too scared to go back and see it again!

    Seriously if you lot are looking for a patron deity this one's your god.

    A bit of confusion there folks.
    I mistakenly took the Great Queen to mean Medb. Not with it tonight.

    I'll leave the way clear for another question from someone while I get a drink to clear the head.
