	That's lovely RR - do you know who quoted it? Disagree with that one, David, whoever quoted it. I think some people take a bit of 'getting to know' and the first impression can be totally wrong. Sad for those who only meet people once, though, and just give a first impression which is inaccurate, for various reasons such as shyness or illness. Mind you, I know that some people's hackles rise just at the sight of me, ha, ha.

	Winston Churchill was a very witty man, and quick with it. Dont have characters like that in politics anymore, mores the pity.

	You're right David. I like this one: People may forget what you said People may forget what you did But people will never forget how you made them feel

	Strong drink heightens the desire, but lowers the performance. Brewers droop ?
