I don't think so Stephen. It is sort of greenish in colour with a white face. And being a member of the Calliphoridae mob it only has 1 pair of wings, whereas I'm almost certain this little thing has 2 pairs. So close, but no cigar.  Regards Roger |

I do like the old EDIT; DELETE THIS POST BUTTON*. You really should make more use of the QUOTE BUTTON. Regards Roger. (I readily admit to doing so on the odd occasion, I cannot tell a lie)* What does; b@*!^<$ mean? Can't get "Translate with Live Search" to make any sense of it. Tried all available combinations...Zilch. Regards Roger |

I would but I think I'm barred from the pub  . Yes, but (assuming it's something detrimental to my character) the ones who would wish to repeat it, speak (to date), Russian, Dutch, French or Walloon or something, and I can't speak any of those languages. Roger B'stard Belgian Consulate. Lerwick. |
