- You've got me there, sport! The nearest I can come up with was Clarence
- who ended his days in a butt of Malmsey, or Charles Edward Stuart's dad,
- supposed to have spent some time in a warming pan. What's the
- reference, or is it just BPC's drinking problems in his later days?

- preparation for summer: hehehe, I'm sitting here in bare feet with the
