Ouch. Still picking my nose up off the floor... Very good seminar, though, with a lot of interesting tips. Can't wait to put them into practice!

Celebrations :-) :-)

The evening of the 8th would suit me much better as I'm not sure I can make the 14th, either. By the way, could you stick up where I'm supposed to be going to on Sunday the 2nd of Nov please!?

Well done Ian, some nice footwork there, looked pretty unlucky on the last fight.

Keep it up.
