I gather from cockney steve's comments that this is a continuation of a thread on "the other site". Is that thread still there or has it been deleted?
No, it's still there but I have stopped updating that one and have decided to do it here instead. I don't want to go into details, but let's just put it down to a new moderator who is rather trigger happy...
It's as much a place for keeping a record of the whole process for myself - and if it can be of interest to others them so much the better.
