I'm with Ben's comments, that is fantastic work !!!!!! wish I was that talented  ;D hey stumpy where are ya in England, my missus was over there last year to visit her relos (but I won't hold that against her, try $750 in mobilephone calls to Oz to tell me what she was doing each day .... I had to stay in Oz to mind the fort while she leapt overseas to play) ..... still trying to work out who the guys are in her holiday pics  ;) ;) didn't recognise you on any of them though  :D her relos are in Cornwall ...

Hi Stumpy,

Nice work. Just checked out your retrorides pages and it's coming along well. Look forward to the next installments.

Cheers,
