Hi Colin,
Thanks, it's Ashanti then is it?
I think I have a little gold weight!

Jim,

I do love the 'tall tales', I guess that when things come down through the generations they often acquire a bit of a 'hollywood' past!
I remember my dad telling similarly exagerated tales about things he got for me when I was a kid.
I thought this one would tickle you guys! You kinda get used to claims of 'from such & such a battle' being added to swords, but this was a new one on me.

Regards
Gene
