Soarer 2

I dont know about the "blue rinse brigade" , but the old "this time its 
different" sounds familiar to this bald fat bastard. Thanks for the feedback 
, I didnt do LHG on a gold basis, in fact looking at the negative return I 
am unsure why I didnt stay in bed that day  :-)

Regards

Morgy
