    Thanks Ian - it's been a long time coming, but I feel the need for it! Never thought I'd be writing it when we were standing in the rain all those years ago at Snibston!

    Conservation versus preservation. Now that would be a thread worth contributing to.
    Anthony I look forward to your article, and I can imagine that it will spark a lively debate on here.
