Well Paul has given me the prize and it is a BEAUTY! The winner of this will not be disappointed. It is very well built, sturdy and extremely practical. Paul has even inlaid the holes where the wire comes through with brass.
This will be hard to part with when the time comes :whistle:

Aha, going for the opening drinks night of AABC! I'm hoping it will just fall over to the next morning, as new people will meet Steven that night but not have a PC on hand. All this is assuming Steven will be there spruiking Ausbonsai, right, Steven? :grin:
Bonsai was meant to keep me away from the computer.

Maybe a spreadsheet of those dates still available might help. I did try to insert an excel file but with no success.

It's too bad your in such a hurry cause the stories I could tell you, Bushels and baskets of stories, hole crates full of stories. But if you can spare a moment I will tell you one story.
