Thanks man, I'm over the moon!!! Florian has done an incredible job, I'm very grateful for all his hard work.

Speaking of hard work, I have a little confession to make. I need to say a big thanks to my " Upload Slave " with out him and his little team working behind the scenes I wouldn't have been able to put up these great shots.

I only have a tablet here so I can't do all the re-sizing and compressing required to get the photographs posted.

So a big thanks to the photographer Bastian Morell, who very kindly squeezed this in to his busy schedule and then worked his magic and got it sent over to Florian.

Also a big thanks to Florians web designer who went round and helped with the re-sizing.

Thanks guys, the photographs look fantastic! ????

Incredible outcome thus far... can't wait until the return to Acton, safe, sound, and happy together.

Beautiful gold, aging, the right amount of barely perceptible green, nice dark board with cracking inlays.

The carve: looks like the Argo has done plenty of abdominals whilst on vacation in Deutschland; or undergone liposuction? :cool:

Congrats to all involved!
