Sandra and I have sold the house, handed in our notices and are making plans for our move to the UK. Some of you will know that this includes an intended extended tour across the US. We will endeavour to visit as many of those of you who have made the mistake of thinking that meeting me/us will somehow enhance your lives as we can. We will probably cross the water to the US in mid-June. I'll post a fuller itinerary to Max's i-Drive when we know what we're doing. There's gotta be a first time for everything. Thank your for your anticipated forbearance for the abuse of this forum! The idiot also known as Capfka ...

Thanks Max, I appreciate the sentiment even if I couldn't fully understand the verse. As for your comments on the aptness of my handle, Capital will apply regardless. Provided that you are prepared to swallow one of its other definitions, to wit, "excellent". And you should remember that whata ngarongaro he tangata, toitu he Aotearoa.
