BL>  NP> You can't read correctly !!! There is an "s" on
the end of it
BL>  NP> !!

BL>   I rest my case. Only a Tawswgian would have a plural name. How many
BL> of you are there?

At the last count there were three of us !
This one is currently replying from Brisbane.

           ^^^^^^^^^

Isn't it about time you added a spelling checker to that VB abortion
you call an editor :-)


BL>  NP> Bloody uneducated Orstraylyans !!! Niels is a genuine
BL>  NP> Scandinavian name. My great grandfather was called Niels Peter,
BL>  NP> and following tradition, I was lumbered with those names as
BL>  NP> well.

BL>   Bloody Vikings. If you'd done your job right you'd have discovered
BL> Australia before Captain Pommy Cook. Bloody wimps.

We got to America before Columbus, but the bloody yanks still
celebrate his landing.  We got to Australia before Cook too, but
we landed on the west coast.  One look at that scenery and we
left the blacks to it.

Only the stupid poms would take it on, and then they only sent
there criminals out here.  Just look and the current state
Australia is in, and look at the population that's here and you'll see it
hasn't improved much since then. Nowadays they elect the
criminals to government, that's about all.


BL>  NP> I have dutifully stuck with the names I was christened with to
BL>  NP> avoid deceased relatives turning in their graves, or taking up
BL>  NP> haunting practices.

BL>   There's nothing worse than a pissed Viking ghost.

Only a pissed off Viking wife !



BL>  NP> The fact that there is also some German blood in the family,
BL>  NP> assisted me in this decision.

BL>   German blood in the family is better than Irish blood on the carpet.

Yeah! Irish blood should be left in the Irish bogs where it belongs!

Cheers
Niels
