had nightmare time trying to get signed copy of book. had to change password three times. in the end had to make do with unsigned copy from publisher. sorry gaffer. in the end had to drag the missus out of bed to get me back on site (good job i had my hard hat on) and on her birthday 
have to wait till a bump into boss and ply him with guinness or summet to get it signed. get well soon tony.
regards sean

when i left school i had to get out and help put the bread on the table. its only now i can find the time to try and get p c literate. the closest i came to technology was the starting handle on machines on cold winter mornings, with cement bags burning underneath to help wam them up. happy days eh??? 
the cliche of silver spoons blah, blah, blah springs to mind.
re errors tonys book.... the man who never made a mistake never made anything a? or summet like that. :p

I'm a complete novice, so it's probably my lack of understanding rather than an error in the book, but in the photo on page 133, have "left" and "right" been swapped over?
