This is a good entry. It would benefit from being converted into GuideML or HTML. If GuideML/HTML confuses you, I'd at least recommend adding a doublespace between paragraphs.
It may seem a small thing -- and that's what's the editors are for, right? -- but the more attractive a piece looks, the more likely someone will say, yes, this belongs as an edited entry.
I think I also noticed a few spelling mistakes. It's good if you can type it up in a separate word processing program where you can run a Spellcheck program on it, and then cut and past into H2G2.
However, I want to emphasize, this is an informative, and useful entry, I enjoyed it, and I am sure others will too. I can't comment much on content since I am unfamiliar with this activity, however, I assume you have everything correct.

Hi there!
Double spacing introduced, couple of mistakes corrected.
As for HTML/GuideML, I am a techno - nerd who has just about got his head round XL, Word and Outlook. Please don't confuse me more than I already am!!!!!

An excellent Entry, with no trouble, I would have thought, getting into the Edited Guide Also do not worry about the spelling (too much), or GuideML, the sub-eds can put that in no bother I liked it Have you tried any of the 'hang a bag on the wall' homebrew kits? Until later.....
