Is 'Rib-off' some reference to not being able to eat meat off the bone?

ROFL! No - a sea-sickness induced typo (the ferry crossing was very rough
yesterday -- 1 hour's wait outside Dover before we could get in. It was a
work 'jolly' -- not my choice to go by boat)

Did you buy any beef whilst you were there?

No - the Beef bourgignon (sp?) was off the menu at the resturant...
