      Also, don't forget there's a Thanks button if it's appropriate, so as not to clog up a thread with a one-word post.

      Indeed, good manners costs nothing but are worth a lot - might be just my perception, but there's been a fair bit of grumpyness and some curt replies on some RMWeb threads of late, posts with attitude, bit of a shame. I want my hobby to keep me away from the rudeness and hassle of some much we encounter in the everyday world 'out there', not follow us about on here :-)

  19. Charlie Petty and Andy York... many thanks for your help yesterday a pair of stars!

  20. Just when I thought it was going so well..ping off into the wilderness went a white metal casting..humph!
