Not French mate - can't remember at the moment where I found it since it was quite a while ago and I'm getting old.

Your challenge was sitting in Aviastar.com with a good picture and 3D...... Sometimes it has good stuff, often it is missing a lot.

sitting in Aviastar
Gotcha! I find that site not that reliable at times. A lot of 'holes' in the manufacturers product lists.

No way. The big ones here are Sainsburys, Tesco, and Asda.

Aldi appeals to those on low incomes..............
