Hi CL

>What do you mean by "effing and blinding?" Effing, as in F***, or something else. No idea what the "blinding" may be.

It's a common Brit expression meaning, as you guys say, "cussing". Not sure about the etymology of "blinding" - maybe an alliteration for "bloody", maybe alluding to the divine retribution result of such language.
