Leo, I was under the impression that Lee wrote the original copy  Mick. Yes, but in fairness he has improved somewhat since. ;D ;D On a slightly more serious note. Isn't it interesting that certain english words are spelled differently in other parts of the world i.e; in the US "colour" becomes "color" and so on. I also hear that the Canadians spell english differently to those in the US. |

To be honest Leo I've been spelling color like that for years.  But given that over the last few hundred years the way we spell some words has changed, so to see other ways of spelling the same word is not to surprising. Not sure about Canada though but could be true, I'm sure some one will put us right. |

To be honest Leo I've been spelling color like that for years. Without my spell checker I'd be a dead loss as to "proper" spelling. My 10 year old daughter could spell me under the table any day of the week ;D The reason I mentioned Canada, and how there they spell differently than in the US, is a friend of mine from there (Canada) was talking about this the other day. |
