Works for me.

Opens a facebook page so maybe that's a factor???

Yeah it does that but it's a 'Oop's something went wrong FB page'. I'm sure I'll survive :wink:

I hope you are able to open it Stu, it's worth reading! Has brightened up my morning - appeals to my sense of humour and certainly made me chuckle. I think you'll enjoy it... :-bd

Edit: Ah, I see you've read it now.

Ha, very funny! He forgot to add question on unashamed gloating about MYOG, something I know I've fallen foul of (have you seen the frame bag and bivy sack I made?) See, there I go again...
