Re Preen

["David Hill" <David_J_Hill@email.msn.com>]

Hi, Bob,

Sorry about that, I slipped into journalese briefly there.

'Having a preen' means going into self-congtratulation mode, being smug,
etc. The source of the expression relates to the way in which birds preen
their feathers.

Don't let it worry you :-)
