k> This kite is blue as pictured.

b> Hey, that looks like blue to me.

k> Oops, sorry, the kite is blue. Copy-paste mistake - should have said "blue" instead of "blue".

:kid_devlish: Anyway, very pretty like all Ron Gibian's kites.

Hi Howard, you are a bit slow. Suppose you had to "be" there to see what I meant.

Think John is just trying to show us mere mortals that no one is perfect.

He has edited out the point I was making.

Still want a pint of whatever he is on though, anything has got to be better than a Muddy Puddle (remember John :kid_devlish: )
