It appears we have a similar problem to do with Ozzie Land because, here was you, thinking that I had taken offence by the use of a simple "Mr."

None taken Tomcat, I assure you, but what I really must do is to make use more of the emoticon or even to show when I think I am being amusing

Have a G'day

Ron
Excellent mate.

Just one thing though on the Australian slang G'day. The term G'day is only used in a hello situation, such "G'day mate how are you', but very rarely in a goodbye situation, is is more along the lines of, 'Have fun', 'Cheers', 'catch you late', or even just bye.

Of course this just could have been one of those rare moments lol
