Good stuff Brian. I'm delighted for you (and John). I know how much care you put into all your models and your love for the Oly is evident.

Thanks gents for all of your comments. The Wild Goose will be in my car for all of the events that I attend in 2022 so hopefully you will see it in the feathers next year.
Brian. :)
