Hi Ian,

I have already explained that mistake to 'Welsh' Druid.
I'm not really into Ships, but they are apparently
catamarans and at least twice as fast as the bog standard,
monohull, Ro-Ro car ferries.

Can I also admit to typing 'Chrysler' when I meant
'Chevrolet' in my piece on General Motors and globalisation.
Can I thank 'Jack' who pointed that out that mistake
in a private e-mail'.
