Babelfish - now >there`s a word!! What does it mean my American friends? Is
it similar to our "Double-Dutch",
(no offence Netherlands. If so, then sincere apologies,) meaning "it`s
written in (any) language which cannot be understood by anyone, therefore
considered to be nonsense". Perhaps it has Biblical origins? But I hesitate
to
wonder if indeed the apostrophe has been omitted which would put Mark in
touch with some glamour? - - - - - -
Babe l`fish WOW! Please explain in English Mark - - - -(as Tony
skilfully steps back to avoid the upper cut).

Tony W.
P.S. It`s not even in the spellchecker.
P.P.S. You`ll have to excuse the heavy breathing folks. I was playing the
Gatwick Hilton last night, and you wouldn`t believe the number of young
American blondes, almost wearing short tops and minis, trying to sit on the
bar stools with some dignity. Well I s`pose you would believe it. Ah
well - - - -
P.P.P.S. I`m there again on the 1/2/3/8/9/10 Sept if there are any young
American blonde clarinettists` visiting.
COME AND SAY HELLO!
