Excellent.
And it works on two levels.....
Just imagine you are saying it to Mike. Still works doesn't it!?

Just reading Sacha's post, and thinking of the wasp sting I had in my finger when I inadvertently picked up a wasp - the sting caused bad swelling for a couple of weeks but the wasp lived to tell the tale to its mates outside. Anyway, just as I was reading this, felt the slightest 'tickle' on my back inside my blouse, and thought, o, oh, so, very carefully took the top off, and there inside was a wasp. Both of us unscathed.... Anyway, time to put my top back on, release the wasp into the garden and get back to the snooker. Just thought I'd share that moment.
