I'm worried about that too B.
I was at work, so that's why I put mine into PR so quickly. I'm on nights for the rest of the week, so have been able to devote some daylight afternoons to fine-tuning, but I won't be able to do that all the time. I guess that's where the stretching comes in at times.

Ah, poor GB. Still, what better way to spend an evening than reading 13 very, very different Entries? Which reminds me, I have only read about half of them so far...
