    Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, Pip
    Good point well made.

    I've just remembered one of my favourite bits from one of the Dibnah
    series. They were demolishing a chimney, and there was a deeply,
    *deeply* worried factory owner hovering around. He spoke to Dibnah's
    oppo:

    "Does, er... Does it go, umm... *wrong* very often?"

    "Ooh, 'baht one in three..."

    and then with *masterly* comic timing:

    "An' we've just done two good 'uns."

    Lovely stuff.
