Congrats Phil, and I think Paul is an example to us all well done, it's good to see someone doing the charitable thing for a fellow forum member.

Can I also thank site owners/mods for creating and running this site in the first place which has given me the chance to take Paul up on his very kind offer, I only hope in the future I can help others in a similar way.



Phil
I sense a PLEDGE coming.

That is a very nice gesture, but I feel it should go to the next person on the list.

Ads by Google, not Turf Google picks up on the keywords on the page and puts relevant ads, if you want to complain, it's Google you need to aim it at.
