Hi Garry,

Lovely stuff. Just out of interest are you able to give us a progress report on how things are coming along?

Nothing for the last month I'm afraid due to real world abd that continues for a day or so yet.

When there is something I'll post it here..I think the most recent may have been on the other thread. (Help wanted in Southampton area one).

I still need more info from Southampton :think:
