    Thanks GT. I noticed that the Youssou Ndour prom was coming along, but hadn't caught the date. I'll go dig out Rita and Verity.

            This is a must.

            Because I have been away, I am confused on timing.

            It has happened already, I think?

            Oh no, maybe not....I will go back to the comments I thought I had read properly but obviously not.

                Ah, so I didn't imagine the "what a voice" comment yesterday which I thought was about Youssou N'D.

                I'm all a bit muddled at the moment but I'm very pleased it was great - no surprise - and will catch up.

                  It was about Youssou indeed, Lat. In African Saturday!
