HI Katie. Know Lanner. Happened to come through top of Lanner on Thrusday finding a “ridge route” back from Condurrow mine to Chacewater. What I see you doing is exactly the nature of what I need to get some idea of. My credentials seen at weldsmith.co.uk Techical topics http://www.weldsmith.co.uk/tech is likely to have most of what might gives an idea. Yes, if you would show me how you go abotu things and facilitate me creating somethign wehre the processor comes alive and does something, that would be everything I sought.
