+1 (with bells on). Hear, hear - let's hear it for Bazza and the huge contribution he's made to 'The Knowledge': our resident 'objectivist' who's not afraid to use his ears!! :clapclapclap: :clapclapclap: :youtheman: :youtheman:

Aw shucks Guys - you're making me feel all embarrased! :o

I ought to point out that The Knowledge is ably maintained by Chris, Beechy and Neil, as well as myself - so a round of applause for them is deserved.

It's nice to know members are now becoming more aware of The Knowledge as it contains much useful information. That's not to stop we Fount Masters from appealing for contributions from members. We have had one such, soon to be published, but we would like to see more - lots more!

This is a fountain of knowledge chaps

Barry's original and in-depth contributions to The Knowledge deserve special mention. Members should definitely check them out, this is quality writing!
