Great, thanks for asking Batman, however waiting for CAA and IAM to decide whether they'll give me a medical. Also had a bit of a bad flight two weeks ago - the wheels seemed to have come off the bus somewhere. Anyway, will be there by road or air - look out for the Wright brothers (Wrong brothers?) original! vhpy
