Thanks, Phil. I'd sort of gathered some of that. Good to hear about those
places I learned about when I visited (well, I mean, was actually with) you!
Malc, in case you should become confused and whilst I remember, that word
"visit" means slightly different things to some of those friends of mine!
It can mean speak with, spend time talking to, and not just going to see
someone; hence I always dig Phil when I have cause to write that word!
(Rightly so, of course!)
