I've heard before that the crown always has a chequebook with them for when they get, "Stuck with the Bill." What I've just read here would seem to defend this position. I can not remember if Scott verified this chequebook recollection in my head here or not, but I do remember reading it not to long ago, somewhere. Thanks for this, Derek Hill.
