You're very welcome! Glad to hear you liked it, I will give it a try
for sure now. I'm thinking that because I *really* do like my lamb
rare/med-rare to begin with, I'll probably bone & grill it first and
then braise the leftovers in wine for a couple of hours to make a
second meal that doesn't scream "leftovers" the following day.
