   Actually you missed the point.  Never mind.  Thankfully Terry seems to   
   have got it.  Actually I think the concert would probably have been   
   good fun.  I do happen to dislike "Posh" for all sorts of reasons, and   
   I didn't care for the "Sporty" one, but I listened to Geri went she   
   went solo.   
      
   I do think they could do with a rename.  "Baby" sounds a bit daft now.   
   And maybe Spice Women might be more appropriate.  Or Lightly Salted   
   Mothers, or ... I have better things to do now ...
