At last you made it!! - congratulations - and I thought my instructions were infallible on how to get here :D :D I wasn't to know that you weren't computer literate was I? I thought you'd gone off me so I had a little sob into my hanky and then moved on (only jokin') :wink: .
Now I've half upset you can I finish the job properly and just say, "St. Ives sketch"
If I could find the emoticon of hiding behind the sofa I'd use it so this one will have to do :clock:
Welcome again (and goodbye?? :D :D )

suitably "warmed" .. mostly by valves of course :)
its still a bit of a mess to be fair, that spare room with all the boxes, (did you see the photo?) still the same.
we making progress though, the living room is as we want it, bedroom is getting there - i just built a 1.5 x 2.2 meter picture frame to house a very large vladimir tretchikoff "lady of orient" poster that hannah bought ... its that big, its gone so far beyond kitch that it seems to look quite classy...i think...
so yeah, pretty good dave, cheers
how are you, i seen your moniker cropping up all over the hifi forum world of late, so im not to suprised to see you here.... but i does mean out of the people i know from else where 50% of them are "Dave"
