I'm lost for words, Mick!! Thank you for the dedication, but you have no need to say sorry, my friend. A contest is a contest, and I've had my fair share of NAs! As Tom said, "you were brave to take those contests on." Keep up your good work! Best regards...and a Happy Easter! ~ paul

Hi Paul, I feel I do, as I move it to the second shortlist and for reasons unknown I overlooked it and it didn't get to the final shortlist. My thanks four your understanding, and wishing you a happy easter too... Mick

Don't beat yourself up Mick, we all make mistakes in life, we're only human after all.I'm sure Paul realises that too.I think you were brave to take those contests on. Tom
