    Reminds me of that saying....

    "I've got the lime if you've got the inclination..."

    You have to admit though, it does cross the lime a bit!

    Please - someone stop me!

    I guess this will become an excuse for fruity remarks.

    It's the kind of thing that's going to anger people who don't have a lot of sex.

    Not sure really - I've a friend who always refers to me as "Me old fruit" and I've never figured what meaning he has in mind either.

    Coincidentally I use nothing else - though I'm not related to the founder.

    It aint a lucky family - Mr Thomas Clinton Pears inherited the soap business from his father in 1909. Three years later he decided to travel to the USA with a view to expanding his business there. So, on 10 April 1912, he left Southampton bound for New York - in first-class cabin C-2 on the S.S. Titanic. A memorial service was held in London on the 21st.
