    Well night all... I may get something done tomorrow morning with the site been read only, but on the other hand I've had a few CBA days, not feeling my best AF mo and I'm border line anemic so will have to remember to take iron tablets tomorrow as feeling really tired.

    I don't want to post my list or pigpen might throw things at me:rotfl:
