 :D :D :D That deserves a whole bag of coconuts Stew  :thumbup: :thumbup:

From the wording on the cover it looks like the article will run through more than one issue - do you know how many yet ?

 :beer:, Arnold

Thanks Chaps,

Quite a suprize that it went in so soon after submitting it, but to be honest I think they are short of articles judging by some of the comments the eds posted on the forum, also they have had quite a few none build articles: covering shows and visits to musiums etc, not as though there is anything wrong with them, i quite enjoy reading them.

Arnold I think it will run to about 5 parts:- about 20 pages.

Quite so, Nick.   :thumbup:

So now he's hob-nobbing with the Upper Echelons I wonder if he'll lower himself to buy a beer or two for us impoverished scrotes ...

Good on yer anyway Stew .. you're a star ...  :clap:  :clap:

I have a few modest talents. Knowing what I'm doing isn't one of them.

Doubt it, we once had an Indian Takeaway, would probably have to dine out in a michalin star restaurant instead these days though!   :lol:

Seriously though, it's fantastic and somehow still improving all the time too  :bow:
