Well done Frank! A wise investment, I'm sure.
Mind you, I'm quite used to rubbing shoulders with you rich
Americans. Only five or six years ago, Richard O'Neill gave me a
million dollar (US) bill during a visit to Dayton. No, I tell a lie -
he gave me two! Only I've not yet managed to change them for
something smaller...
