 :angel: Thanks, Anne  :angel:

I should have added that Prof. Lailo was aided in his discovery by his Swedish colleagues Törl Störi and Åprúl Phjöle  >:D

Heh heh heh Glen, lovely!  :clap:  I wonder when this might appear elsewhere as a genuinely rare piece reference?  >:D

I hope that no-one mistakenly believes they are genuine (the big APRIL FOOL at the foot of the article is supposed to be a clue  :-X) but you never know.................

The link will be gone off my home page shortly.

In case anyone wants to know what those two bowls really look like, here they are (and this one is genuine!)
