FM - lighten up! It was an attempt at a bit of humour. I call myself Wheezing Donkey because I'm wracked with asthma and can't keep up with the thoroughbreds - you've got to be pepared to laugh at yourself now and again.
Mind you, "Ballbag" - that elevates me to the same status as "The Master"; I believe that you bestowed the same title on him ( see '2008 FRA Calendar' thread ).
All the best to you and yours for the festive period.
