So here's the next thing that made me smile and realise I was a port-head.

Is it just me who finds that amusing?

I here the word 'tongs' i visualize port tongs.
news story has dow in its headline I think its about port not stocks
you add a splash of port to eggs (i have done this for years)
you visit more than 1 website dedicated to port
you read the phrase 'port head' and know exactly what it means
