[BOB KISS]

Thanks to all who replied.  I found Simili on the Joopstoop website but
searched the John Purcell website and could not find it.  As Barbados is a
former British colony the shipping is much easier and faster from the UK.
Mark, can you find Simili on the Purcell site?  Did I miss something?
		CHEERS!
