For some reason the clip won't run on my machine, but I'm sure the contributors to the TSF Team will get the message.

Hey - that video was great BUT at the end It advertised 'joining another group'

Surely we have the technologhy within this group to add a YouTube getting folk to join up via TSF.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.... If I had time, I would argue the point, however I have to go out this evening.... Man talk...then Dinner & more man talk

Sorry, you'll have to put up without me this evening. You can talk behind my back - every one else does!
Cheers
