Hi Paul
Sorry I have missed this but just had a most enjoyable catch up. As always love your big, busy dios and this is up there with your best. The burnt out/destroyed buildings are really excellent. Had to smile at 'saving cigarette ash and using old tobacco' - that is certainly forward planning.
