Really? You might be surprised ar what still lurks in the depths of the PC
on which you created it? Now, on your honour, did you do it on your own PC
or did you, in dark glasses and a bandanna, tab down to a cyber cafe in the
next county (on public transport) to create it. Marks to you if you did the
latter but the former seems more likely. Tell? Cross you heart and hope to
die?

Besides, you now need to conspire to pervert the course of justice if you
are going to get a notice served on the recipient.
If it were me, I'd fold now rather than up the ante but advising people how
they should act is usually a sterile activity.

We wait with bated breath. Or should that be with baited breath?
