I have followed Mike Turpin's example in the 'Getting the Anchor Right' thread.

The warm fuzzy feeling from getting this detail extra-right was worth it.

No probs jonny. I haven't been to anglia model centre because I emailed them a question just after you told me where they were and I still haven't had a reply. So if they can't be bothered to answer me then I can't be bothered to shop there.

Have you been in there since they moved??
