    That was the longest 24 hours of my life!

    Good news on two fronts...

    Spoke to the executive producer of DIY SOS a few minutes ago and he says he's interested, needs to know more, but it won't be for the series they're filming currently and would be some months away if they covered it at all.

    He had nearly 100 emails from you and said how polite and supportive everyone was.

    He liked the MSE forumistas support aspect and needs to think how that can be worked in.

    He is escalating the project to Level 2 (don't ask me) but that means he will ask a researcher and a builder to come here in a couple of weeks and look round, measure up etc.

    He stressed it may well not go ahead, but he wants to know more and likes the sound of the whole thing.

    SO THAT IS WORTH A PAT ON THE BACK FOR EVERYONE HERE! GOOD FOR YOU!

    Then...

    I had an email from another programme :cool: I was talking to weeks ago that went all quiet on me. The person dealing with it had moved on and a new guy has picked it up and is interested in knowing more. I've resent the info he needs. I have no idea what happens next or when, if at all. But it's better than I expected, having more or less accepted they weren't responding. I hope to speak to him soon and he wants to send someone down to have a look.

    If both are interested, that's a problem I will be happy to have. It will all sort itself out one way or another.


    Hey - this is seriously good news, huh?

    Your support helped me keep going long enough to contact these two, and the letters to DIY SOS obviously did the job you intended. Take a bow, everyone. People power + internet might = fewer of these thieves getting away with it, and maybe one day the law will be tightened up. It's obviously a bigger problem than anyone thought.

    I'm not looking at curtain material samples yet, but knowing that people at the very top in television think what you've all done is remarkable makes me feel very good and proud to know you, and it's another step towards pinning a big one on Paul Bridle, from Horsham, West Sussex RH12 3LG.

    Thank you. Have a good evening, everyone. Mr Bridle, just do your best, and enjoy all the free publicity for you and your business which is on its way.

    Well wrap them carefully. The postman gave me a very funny look last time.
