I FEEL LIKE THE PIG IN THE GEICO COMMERCIAL.

Thanks are as usual due tosovay , whose patience is enduring and who never said "For God's sake, cease that endless whinge or I'll eviscerate you, authorcheeks," though it would have been within her rights; and to upstart_crow , who is the most intuitive editor I have had the pleasure to work with, and has a really excellent ear for style.
