With ringing in my ears, I considered the smilie as universal communication. 11 pages of these I digested. I will persevere with the English language (for now).

Well all this proves Marco hasn't changed his ways. It should be clear you are not NVA or NVA employee to any sane individual.

Kaz is now 'as associated with NVA' as I am perceived to be. Email after email after email proves this and the hatred is palpable I'm afraid. The 'hangers on' stirring the pot for the two main protagonists really don't help at all imo and if anything, make it worse.
Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way...The time has gone, The song is over, Thought I'd something more to say...

"Palpable hatred" Oh surely not that bad Dave........ :o

We would surely need to stir our pot's really fast to make it worse than that. :hand: :guiness;

Really pleased with how these have turned out given that it was my first attempt. Had a good session with them last night and they certainly did not disappoint. They do the Cube projection thing and sound remarkably full scale given their relative compact dimensions. The cabinets were looking dull and tired, but a bit of elbow grease and some beeswax has brought new life.
