    Looking good, very lightweight.

    P.s. you can flip the photos upside down by editing them on Photobucket. Takes a short while to update the link though

    The front box was completely wrecked (there might be some photos of it earlier on), so there was no real choice about how to move forward......

    Thanks. I've edited in Photobucket, so we'll see if that works eventually.

    No, I'd never have given up on it, it was just bad timing that I crashed it at precisely the same point when my life was in complete upheaval!
