Smile when you say that pardner.
Let's keep the politics out of this, it will only serve to make people
mad.
Jim,
Yes I still have it. The winnng bidder welshed out and never paid
for
it.

I'm not particularly sensitive in these matters , but I do object to
your
use of the term "welsh" , meaning to renege on a bet I am told.
This is old English propaganda , and I'm told that Bill Clinton had to
apologise for it's use in America.
Should you persist , I shall have no hesitation in initiating the use
of the
verb to " American " - i.e. to invade or destabilise a foreign country
on
false premises or purely for the advancement of American capital
interests .
Geoff.
