You sir, were very lucky :) Mind you, if that was off the red scrapper I'm not too surprised judging by how it all looked down there...

Hope you have an equally easy pin to extract Terry [-o<

I'd say that was a pretty universal hatred Alasdair... Show me a person who likes rust and I'll show you a fully-certified nutjob ;)

You may have. Google is scratching its head over that one unless you mean I used QED in the wrong context - which, to be fair, I did - as the fact that James is a fully certified nutjob has not been conclusively proved and therefore it is not strictly QED.

It remains a conjecture rather than a proof ;)
