the thread continuesright JohnUS; it was I who made reference to Woodbines. You know the saying: answers on the back of a postcard please? well I have a tendency to have my own jargon, ie answers on the back of a woodbine packet. Woodbines were a brand of cigarettes in the UK, very popular with soldiers during World War I. I used to work for Rothmans Cigarette Company during the 1970's and at team meetings I would tell my team that if they had any comments about anything they should let me have them on "the back of a Woodbine packet" Just me being me and drinking from the same cup as others of the same ilk. Just for clarification, I don't know what the English equivalent is for "drinking from the same cup" but I will find out and let you know.
