Re: rf#99 in the uk

hersh,
they deserved a drink or two, or three....!! [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]all unloaded ok, just going through all the bits sorting them out. the quality is amazing. havent stopped grinning since it arrived. many thanks to all who came round to help unload the container and drink all the beer.
when i get the hang of the missus's new camera i'll put pictures of the build progress on the forum.
hopefully the big SVA test wont be that far in the future. might even start the build tommorow [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]
