Hello H. Good to have you back.
I've given this a lot of thought. Months I've been thinking about it. It's just been 'think, think, think' - constantly. Why doesn't anyone else do proper 20mm? Proper 20mm that is, not those 1/72 giants.
I'll e-mail you.
Iain

Folks, don't fall off your chairs but yes, it's me. Really, I'm not dead or otherwise incapacitated, just a slightly irritating touch of cancer, but still of sound mind, if not body.
Yeah, that little c can be a bit itchy, just don’t rub it and it’ll get better
I’ll drop you a mail as soon as the sprained wrist I sustained falling off my chair heals.

Harrow Henley, good to see that being put on the naughty step at PMT hasn't got you down.
In the wise words of W S Churchill "Keep buggering on".

Hi Henry, good to hear from you. Better to hear you have dodged the cancer bullet.

Thanks Grizz – not quite dodged, unless you count starting three years of hormone therapy with three or four months of radiotherapy next spring as "dodging"!

However, "fortunately caught it before it had a chance to kill me"
would be accurate.
I've had more people disappearing up my rear end with heavy equipment than the Wookie Hole caving team. Feels like one of them dropped something, too.

What you need Henry, is a good loud fart to get rid of whatever they dropped up there.

I knew I’d get the best medical advice here. It’s like a prescription.
