There was no copyright on it maybe just say (via email author unknown). We will all be giggling when next it's "in a vice" as we think of slamming the fridge door - I know I will be "ducking"!! I had a "dodgy" result a couple of years ago which resulted in a biopsy with breast in vice as they Xrayed to make sure they had the right piece - they can have the whole tit next time. I have NEVER felt so powerless and panicky - stirrups at birth dont come anywhere close!   Pinky
