...and who knows what Chubbs is really fishing for.

He's getting lonely Carl, watch out

Your new user name Ding....

Anyway, just because I didn't know what two words meant doesn't mean I'm thick, I guess that's what you were insinuating by asking if I was 14?  

Mind you, Chubbs is a little clever by doing what he does, a lot of people do bite, I'm surprised Lec did. The more times he does this kind of thing the more people are aware of it (well, so you would think). He kind of keeps people on their feet, so to speak.

No Carl, cast your mind back to the idea that Chubbs was on a fishing expedition... and then wonder who or what he might (allegedly) be fishing for...

Anyway, it's good to have you on the forum because you ask questions and take notice of the answers, so I wouldn't be tempted to insult you.  

(PS: I blame that Roger - and no, you're not supposed to understand that particular reference, Carl - that's for the Chubster!)
