I agree Gord, but I had no intention of assaulting anyone.

My original offer (complicated I admit by my ill-judged use of the 
Mario Puzo "Godfather" threat) was for Ian M to provide his tardy 
vendor with the _implied_ threat of a visit from a friend to motivate 
him into getting on with sending the lens.  I then digressed into the 
idea of of a group of us visiting with the "offer that he could not 
refuse".  I did not intend to confuse anyone across the Pond into 
thinking that this meant a posse armed with bags of any sort (I 
resemble the image being connected with me anyway......... <grin 
through gritted teeth>).

If Ian wants to use my presence closer to his putative vendor than Oz 
then that is fine by me; if he wants me to visit to collect the item 
and send it myself, fine; but at no stage would I have envisaged a 
visit with a view to physical persuasion.  Persuasion still works in 
this country, for the most part ;-).
