    Read it twice, but skipped over most of the stuff in French. Its like a giant Napoleonic soap opera.

    Two goldfish in the post as we speak.

    Not sure if they'll be all that lively by the time they get to you.

    And I was in the same room for some of the time. Does that count?

    I challenge you to read all the documentation that came with your car insurance.

    It'll do for me but I'm running low on goldfish.

    My car insurance documentation is in the 'paperwork box' under the stairs with my bank statements, bills and a copy of the BNP manifesto.

    Did they translate the French stuff into Norwegian, or just the Russian stuff?
