Well, Australians, mainly....(say "good on yer", typically followed by
"mate").
This (i.e., Bill's message) reminds me of an old saw that:
Amateurs (like you and I, I take it, Bill) practise till they get it right
once;
professionals practise till they get it right every time.
Partially contradicting that, of course:
*Successful* pros never need to practise because they're always working.
(Hmmmmm...).
