It's been said before but most of us are jolly pleased that YOU run this forum the way that YOU do Nick. Respect.

Well, I'm tempted in the same way that I'm tempted by free beer if you know what I mean - it would be rude not to. But I've got more than enough on already and too many incompleted projects.

It's a pleasure. I enjoyed looking back at them and knowing what a bunch of anoraks we are I thought others might find them interesting too. I've probably got some more somewhere - I'll see if I can find them.
