Well, I've always heard that it is the most complete form of exercise, ranking along with swimming. It stands to reason that if you keep yourself f.....g fit, and you're regularly enjoying the the happiest pastime known, you'll be able to shrug off illness that much better, and you have an incentive to stay alive! :-) PS that's "fighting fit" of course. -- Jeremy Browne - [log in to unmask] Hampshire, UK
