YM. I think our watch would be ahead in the competition for the most revs logged in a day (against E-S anyway and providing the Chief doesn't catch us out). Is it only antipodeans that know the hand stoked coal burner japes? (I know not only from Kipling but also from a bunch of BHP guys doing their Chief's in '75 at Saudi Shields).

Mind you, E-S would probably be OK as a school janitor with a coke boiler. You, on the other hand, would probably have the little buggers broiled before break.

(And that Chinaman won't get his five beers if I find my aerials used for drying my whites, no more anyone else's).
