Glad to see Old Tim has demonstrated at least a modicum of common sense
to-date... :-)

HOWEVER... the following offered, Without Prejudice...

Thirty... MY GAWD... but a few years to extinction... how we almost-50s
feel your pain! Oh, to be YOU again, but with OUR innate, evolved
intelligence and perspective!

Trust me on THIS, self-replicating should NOT be high on one's list of
priorities (the rest of us found this out by default); HOWEVER, finding
a suitable Host Female IS... said Host, must, by definition, be prepared
to encourage the evolution of YOUR innate interests, else you shall
inevitably be left with an empty house (if any house at all) and a LARGE
monthly bill for child support. You're a Man, and you do Man-Things...
you will NOT be able to simply "stop".

Numerous of us here can speak as the Voice Of Authority on this
subject...

What a silly bunt, hehehe...

Incoming as soon as I find it; I suspect use in the ground role (as with
our 40mm Bofors crews) after Normandy, but will endeavour to confirm.

Cheers,

Geoff
