Lorinda's section was one of the ones I pointed to as 'definitely pay hard attention to this bit' - well, maybe up until the coffee sipping with the numbers being read out. (Of course, that's not to say the rest of the video isn't important!) Thanks all for sharing your memories. Cheers, Marshall On Wed, Feb 16, 2022 at 4:02 PM John P.
