Thanks Redsnail, "the shed" is much more apt!

Sounds like a good experience and just the sort of thing I'll be looking for. I just want to get buried in it to start with. The way I feel at the moment after 4 years of waiting to begin the training, I'd fly a tin bucket at night through the Antarctic if someone will pay for it!
Capt. Manuvar thanks. I've done exactly that. Lots of positive information to prove I'll be a valid customer for the future

Let's hope they don't see through the smoke screen! Or even better, let's hope I prove myself right and strike it lucky!
all the best,
TB.
