Autorev,
That was a little uncalled for old bean.
I know the chap you refer to about the gong, but even he himself will tell you of his embarrassment at receiving it!! (he has told me that he got it because he was there, and so many had to be dished out - 'right place/right time' blah.
nevertheless, I know them all quite well, and have to say that they are a great bunch of blokes. No big egos, no big heads. just sheer unadulterated professionalism.
Like BEagle, I hope the bean counters don't look too close.
kind regards
TSM
