That is my favourite combo Dave (Lol)
I had refreshed my computer earlier so I was seeing the right avatar. I bet others that hadn't refresged and were seeing the choc coated banana must have been thinking "what a strange dude", or "I bet he doesn't catch many fish with that".
What's your favourite combo mate? You must have a few.
