            Is that for the ukes, John? If so, make sure you go and see them live next time they're in your neck of the woods. They are bloody brilliant.

            Oh and my son just did his supper raid on the fridge and reckons the answer is 9 (he's just got his Maths AS level). I'm going to stand in the corner with a pointy hat.
