    Well, Mike, I think you might lose your florin, but I cannot call a devil charge to mind at the moment.
    (For those who don’t know, a florin was the name given to a two-shilling silver coin. Originally it referred to a silver coin minted in Florence.)
    I know someone who has a numbat in his arms.

    And Bugbear, that symbolism for the colour blue rings true. I knew there had to be a reason why it is my favourite colour!
    Regards,
    Mike

    I can help with that, Mike - the supporters for the coat of arms of Tasmania are Tasmanian tigers.


    Downunder Kilt, I think that means I have a florin coming my way!

    Cygnus, anytime you are in town give me the nod and the florin is yours, as well as a good meal.
