Oops. Well it was their call, I was just an innocent bystander.
In fact I was stateside at the time ... a woman in a bar there asked if I was excited about the news of a new royal baby being on the way? (a chat up line?) First I'd heard of it. When I responded that I was more interested in how the polls were lining up for the Scots to walk she hadn't a clue what I was talking about.
