Thanks for this Chuck,
What you say makes sense. I shall thus retain the switch.

By the way, do you know how "Charles" became "Chuck"? We have always
wondered but nobody has been able to explain so far - a ridiculous
query I know, but somethings just irk you.
cheers

The boy's name Chuck \ch(u)-ck\. Pet form of Charles (Old German) "free
man". Originally a nickname from a term for endearment (from Middle
English "chukken", meaning "to chuck"). Chuck has 1 variant form: Chuckie.
