Thanks for all your patience waiting for the forum restoration (and for not bombarding me with emails about the outage).

Have a Happy New Year to all.
Best regards,
Ken

Thanks Ken for getting things back up and running.  Your ongoing update blog certainly helped and gave confidence that things were being worked on.


I trust you were still able to enjoy some holiday spirit.


Back to enjoy,
Paul
