hope someone finds it useful

i tried to make it as easy to understand as i could, it takes a while to get to grips with but when you do, its in your head for keeps

you should have seem the original draft, in scribbled pencil on on plastered wall on site, this just seems easier when asked how do you fit like that

Wow 2008.

I don't have it that's for sure. He'd hosted the pictures and the images on a NTL web page that you got with their internet package. The sold to Virgin obviously so that ended.

I'm sure we can help though what problems are you having?
