  nice that; I've had bits donated for my bus by total strangers, but
  never anonymously!  Kind of restores some faith in people, especially
  if you've ever had something anonymously removed from your bus!

  Keep going. I personally like hearing about peoples experiences with
  their busses. All this stuff provides information thats useful
  and interesting. I try and read all the posts, even if they
  aren't directly relevant (like the H20 and GNATT stuff). They give the
  list it's `flavour'.

  I mean where else could I go on and on about type 2s and still find 
  people willing to keep listening/writing about them without their eyes 
  glazing over, yawning and generally finding this stuff not as interesting
  as it is?

  cheers
