       No, not greedy, simply necessary. Mad Nigel in my caving club is from 
Portland - he'd have got you more of "Dr Nobel's Linctus for excessively

       My maps are in a box in the parent's cellar. My German is even more

       Didn't visit Eichstatt. Just wanted to do some walking and rock

       I'd completely forgotten about them. Very pleasent walking back 
alongside the river in the evening.
