Dead set true, phlemmy!! John is one of the nicest guys I have met - ever!! He's been very kind and helpful to me and I only hope that I can return the favour(s) one day. And I'm really looking forward to catching up with him again..... hopefully this year. :D :D

I know that I can speak for Ron Viney also, who's away on holidays in New Zealand,

Sean,

You scoundrel, you beat me to the punch...I was going to post how much fun I had with you this evening :D You're too kind....

I had a great time and it was a treat to meet you. Once again, the benefits of the Forum are really obvious.

Once I tried to get close to him, but his security pushed me away....and then laughed...

All I wanted was his autograph.....
