Bring it on Christine! Dueling wine bottles at 20 paces!

I like a half-glass of tawny port in the evening with dinner, but I get loose stools drinking too much alcohol.

I'd like to ask Chris about it. Is she going to do this Q&A still?

Now where's that vomiting emoticon?
I think Chris has forgotten about the Q&A.......

I'm confused. I always thought a bug scientist was an entomologist and an eptimologist studied skin disorders and such.

You are right! Thanks for pointing that out - I will change it

It wasn't Christine who said it?

I also wondered why her half-brother, Cyril wasn't mentioned in the ITM booklet. I'll bet the Jo Perfect that's mentioned in the booklet is Dan's wife. I'd still like to know who Tim Butler is.

Fiona Rae is Dan's wife, I think Jo must be their daughter

I didn't know that. Thanks. How did you know that, Gail?

Isn't Google wonderful?

And don't some of us need to get out more?

Google is the best! Get out more? Don't be silly!

[macfan 57]

That's incredible. So Dan Perfect is a tennis nut & Fiona Rae is his wife. Well, what do you know. Thank God for Google. Don't worry about getting out more, Gail. I was wondering how you could possible know about Fiona since she wasn't mentioned at all in any of Christine's interviews.

Thanks for the info! I LOVE Google!! I have an old article from about 1077 where Chris mentions that her dad remarried a woman that had a daughter already, so she had a stepsister. Wonder if that is Jo Perfect? Although I guess it's doubtful she'd take the new surname...

Or do you think Jo Perfect IS/was Chris' dad's 2nd wife???? hmmm.

Also In the UK there happens to be another Jo Perfect, that I think is into alternative music/in a band etc...That last name is so unique, it would be weird to imagine a Perfect not being somehow related to Chris..bit I guess it's possible....
