Hi All, I don't think I can equal any of the unusual greetings that have appeared on these pages. So: A Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all. I hope Father Christmas brings you what you all want. Incidentally one of the young lady presenters on the local BBC radio station said she had bought her husband an "engineer's lathe" for Christmas. She hadn't realised how heavy it was going to be - she had to organise four guys to heave it into position. Some guys have the right kind of wives!! Roger Mason, in St. Agnes - no sign of the white stuff yet - plenty of the wet stuff though! MODEL ENGINEERING DISCUSSION LIST.
