On the “Age old custom” query, Omar Sharif had an agreement with various Italian partners to reduce his stress level i.e. that Thankyou, Merci and Grazzi gave different levels of confidence about how good the contract was; apparently the last was the most pessimistic. One day his partner absent mindedly said Grazzi when dummy was very suitable; cue a squawk of “How can it be that? It couldn’t be more suitable could it?” from Sharif as dummy.

Hi Iain,
Perhaps Omar was only expressing his joy over an already asked question, will she or won’t she? After all, many men might have different ideas, as to good and bad ideas and Omar
usually had his pick of the litter. Perhaps it was only his finesse, but don’t bet on it.
And another question, I have never known a female named suitable.
