That indeed was the quote I had in mind. But at the time I had not my Return with me. Hence the misquoting.

The thread is yours, anyway. Really sorry.

It's ok, Nil!

Thanks.

You do remember rightly.

Your turn.

Thank you, Evisse !

It is from U.T., if that is any help to you...

(btw, so you like Joe Dassin too, Evisse ?
