Hi Alastair
Its been a busy day and left the phone in the car, anyway im not making any descisions with regards to the Loyd bits untill i see how much else i can pull out of the hedge. the loyd has been cut up big time, i think there may have been 2 ! hard to seperate the bits from real scrap. If i do get rid of anything you will have first shout.

Great photos Shaun, not bored at all. I looked at all of them.

And Richard, your not sad at all, just sick, very very sick.
But that's ok, because we're all running around this institution together with the same straight jackets!
