Thicko, I think that the name 'overdale' stems from the Latin "overius studious dalious". A person who is seeking knowledge from the wrong source.....frequently, But, I could be wrong.

Hello, Thicko, not too bad: a little cool (about -18c) but I think you guys have got more snow than we have! We've only had about 4 inches this season. Bardotagogo, are you also overdale? Relax, we are just having fun: that's the major purpose, I think, of this site...............see ya.
