Yes. I get a bleedin' doorstop. I need to be careful not to drop it on my toes. It has Lilliputian print & the paper is, I think, recycled Bronco.

And I too remember the days when the bonus was a single malt. Alas, I was a malcontent even then, as Scotch whisky is one of the few alcoholic drinks I've no taste for. If I won one I had to give it away, my only consolation being that it was destroying someone else's liver.

I feel a meldrew coming on. Peace & love, etc. to all bards.
