    I am disappointed guys.

    The vehicles should have been in chronological order - with the most important one at the front.

    It isn't something stupid like

    A puddle of land rovers, lounge of land rovers?
    There were three of them so it can't have been a "brace". That's two.

    Brian, are you on your way down here to your daughter's? If so, we should meet up again (for others on the forum, Brian and I have known each other for years as we were both Principal Technical Officers with the Overseas Telecommunications Commission).

    When one queries Ron, then one must always brace oneself for his answer.

    I reckon that Ron and I could organise a brace of red sometime in the next few days.

    When one is with Ron, one is forever bracing oneself. One pedant in the family is too many!
