Cheers Tony :-)

Its not so much 'toys for the boys' as a case of always having had them 
previously - and, as a result, the feeling of being a tad 'naked' 
without some idea of what's going on 'down below' .. I guess I was 
heavily indoctrinated at far too young an age .. LOL!

(I might omit the next stage though - that's the one with the engine 
room log book and hourly readings; these were always taken down, very 
religiously, when the 'big hand' pointed to the number '12' on the clock!)
