Hi
Yes, it's that Mike Batt. Not to completely confuse matters before everyone
checks Rumori on Monday from work, I do urge you (- non UK citizens -) to check
out The Wombles. What makes this case particularly surreal is that Mike Batt is
best known in Britain for the Wombles theme tune and I owe my career to them.
Well actually that is a lie. Follow the link from his homepage below.
Apologies if you know what I'm talking about but I don't think Wombles exported
and it is one reason why the world is in deep distress.
