    I've become inured to cold legs and whatsit while sitting on a metal chair.

    the greater concern is 'sightlines' - there is a photo we've all seen of the Officers of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders in a group photo with HM the Queen - with one gentleman's courting-tackle in full view.

    The Officer in question has now been immortalized by the hornpipe entitled "Hamilton's Nutsack"......

    And that photo was "doctored" Rob - the original was completely decorous!

    Now here I was thinking Terry Tully wrote that tune about Chris Hamilton... I'll have to pull out my book and find out.

    Anyway, with regards to sweeping the pleats, as a "man of substance", I've found that I have problems with it, too. It takes practice.
