It seems to be offline already! Although
http://www.montypythonpages.com/index1.htm still seems to be going somewhere.
Or maybe you are working on it. Anyway, thank you for all your enhusiasm so

I recommend that you keep your items yourself, unless you canoot bear to live
with them any longer.

Spiny Norman
