    DIY does feel satisfying (especially when it works!)
    Thanks! I just looked up baldric. I never knew that. I always thought this to be the only baldric:YouTube - Private Baldrick singing

    From memory, in the first series of Black Adder, BlackAdder / Edmund says the following line "Here baldric hold my sword" - so that's how he got his name. (Before that I think he was "Ploppy" like his father)

    Bit off topic but hey!

    Oh- and thanks again for the feedback guys,

    Michael.
