Years ago I had dinner in a London based Greek restaurant (one then frequented byPrince Charles no less). It did not have a booze licence and our host who had fought with the Greek partisans had brought a case of Retsina. So Jacco I can verify that the saying in your last post contains no truth whatsoever! Horrible food chosen by our host and paint stripper to drink. Later a Greek neighbour introduced me to some really superb Greek red wines and food which almost obliterated that evening with the old guerrilla.
Having said that I knew some Greek guys when at University back in the early 60s...they were great guys and very generous.......and they believed that Retsina was for clearing drains blocked by their very grainy coffee! I developed a taste for that coffee.

Best laxative I've ever had the pleasure of enduring, but I'm likely highly allergic to pine resins.
Red wine is off limits too, unless the label reads 20 years ago, unfortunately that means I'm only able to swallow expensive sheit.
Going G usually refers to getting stuffed, but not by means of eating.
(Going P is OT, also here. What I can say is that I'm seeing a tragedy of epic proportion approach, something I've already visioned a couple of decades ago. A wooden cash horse at the gate every morning, decade after decade, does not merely destroy the city of Troy, but innihilates the entire population)
One can get 0.75 mm cutting disk as well but not so easy to came by for 4 inch grinder
So no much use unless U called Jacco
Well if U came by Venice between 15 and 23 I am there so U got invite for that as well
that goes in another hole
whops its almost noon
enough with this coffee. Im making an 0.1 % battery checker on cheapo btw. Just got it working. 3 comps: a 1% 3 digit panelmeter, a buck on fleabay, a Z4040-10 0,01% reference between yellow measuring pin and 12 v power pin and a 10 k between 0 V and measuring pin to give and limit its current. Works like a charm! Gonna have one over each four 12 V house batteries and one over each of the two 12 V starter batterys. Both are serialed 24 V systems. One can imedialely see whats going on below, if its charging, if a cell starts getting bad etc.
