"As for Hoof and Mouth Disease Heather the big fear seems to be 
spreading it, not contracting it. As for Mad Cow Disease I'm a 
Vegetarian anyway so I'm not terribly worried. However the whole 
thing does seem rather frightening."

I refer you to my previous post.
 
"Then there was the whole never-ending biscuit thread, which wasn't 
so bad considering I made Chocolate Chip Cookies this afternoon. I 
don't know how the Brits can find something called a "digestive 
bisquit" very appealing but then again I'm still wondering over 
Spotted Dick. Bisquits are a good ol' custom (being from North 
Carolina."

You misspelled biscuit.  Um, what do you have against diggys?  If 
we're in the habit of insulting each other's old and dignified snack 
food heritage, then can I take the opportunity to say I don't know 
how the Yanks can find something called an 'oreo' very appealing, but 
then again I'm still wondering over Walmart, and that leaves the list-
Americans with a chance to come back at me and make bad jokes about 
Ribena.  *Al grins*

"Who really wants to go to Liverpool (I'm a Beatles fan) but I don't 
think I'm gonna get there this year."

Liverpool is ... well, undescribable really.  The Beatles are one of 
few good things about it.

Hee hee!
