        I'd like to place on record at this point that the second time I
visited Edinburgh I got invited to the next meeting of the Edinburgh Gay
Lesbian and Bisexual Real Ale Drinkers Circle by a woman I'd never met
before that evening. (Couldn't make it, sadly.) Yours,
                                                        Jon
