I am being very brave about it.

It was hand made in Afghanistan. The man who made it was paid at least £4.38

DAMN. Ought to have deployed the Fair Trade argument  Banghead
You could buy the 'stan for £2000 and have change left over for a new suit and a fish supper!!!

Good point. SHall I give you Mrs Nick's number so you can tell her, like?
