I agree with the dietary requirement issue - however, please please, if I invite you over for dinner, tell me what you can't eat. I will be more than happy to make something you can eat!!! I don't want to make a roast, if all you wanted were the potatoes and vegies! 
As for the "postage blood donor" - good grief, geta life!!! It is not as if you did it on purpose ....
And Richard, backing up your vegan "issues"
- IMO if you are a vegan, GO TO A VEGAN restaurant!!! There are so many of them in Australia ...... well, in Melbourne anyway 
As an aside, last year, I bought a roll of Christmas paper - all excited because it looked so fabulous through the wrapper. Only to discover when I opened it, it was for a Jewish holiday 
I laughed, and gave it to my Jewish friends - who could not believe you could actually buy JEWISH wrapping paper
M!
