But hang on...what will Leanne say about this type of crit? While the cat's away.... Wink

The 'split' business really comes from a similar word in the Qur'an, in the last chapter, I think.
LOL -Is she listening? I'll find a nit...

Well, I did have a bit of a problem with 'whither'. Grammatically, of course it is used correctly, but I suppose one gets used to it more in an interrogative sense (whither dost thou wander?' ) I almost read it as 'whether' which seemed to fit as well. I lie archauc language lots, but hither thither and whither always seem a bit tongue in cheek because of the way in which they are sometimes used humorously in modern speech.
I am waffling.
