Education and prayer are two well known methods of helping the masses
that lack superheroes. If you are looking for a particular hero and your
husband is *not* at home please call +353 1 6624888 and ask for 'Super
Bertie who art the man and made of sugar' (super-sekrit nickname "god").
We'll get right on it.
Thank you for participating in ILUGs "we are a caring LUG" monthly
debate. Please feel free to heckle Bryan and Paul on the way out. They
live for this sort of thing. They also accept large transfers of foreign
stuff into small receptacles.
If you happen across any cans of beer on the way through customs they
are mine, and I'll have them back thank you very much!
Regards,
