Will be better launching from Chris's place then, at least the cars and trailers will be safe.

At whatever point you gents would like a new Sticky Thread, just say the word. Pick a title...

BTW, speaking of Gents, your RIBnet Agents on the IOM are Brian & Cypman, both excellent examples of the pinnacle of the human condition. Ask nicely...

Turn that "Acoustic Enhancer" up Pops, they didn't ACTUALLY say "oh look, there's Golden Tanned Ribber"...
