Here it is folks.....

yes, I am sorry for doubting Adam had
sent a PayPal payment and for my less
than gracious remarks about his intentions.
<all sing:: "for he's a jolly good fellow, for he's ....>

Adam was vouched for very quickly by several
list members, some of whom I've 'known' for
a few years. That was both gratifying and
reassuring. I am embarassed by my quick
misjudgement, his payment had gone though when
he said it had. I have yet to receive any confirmation
from PayPal for whatever reason, but this has nothing to
do with Adam, my fault for being too suspicious/quick
on the keys.

As punishment I am going into self imposed exile from the
vanagon list for an unspecified but long period. That'll
teach me! So long, Tim
