Subject: Re: warrington show

I was at Warrington - fantastic show, even better than I'd hoped,
even though we were up at the back of the balcony.

I thought of 45 and my wife picked 39, I think. I guess there are
certain numbers that most people pick, one of them being 47. DB's
skill would be in predicting what type of person his 'victim' is and
selecting the most likely number for that personality. Obviously,
I'm a differrent 'type' to my wife, which is actually true in a lot
of ways! ;-)

Brilliant routine - I particularly liked the magic square bit..
