However as a rough estimate in terms of magnitude of scale I didn’t do too badly:-) I’m sorry to hear the two girls are now a little cranky from getting their shot, yet a Phil Warnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15671311338712852659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22973357.post-61215982151764697442011-06-30T07:13:27.276-04:002011-06-30T07:13:27.276-04:00Hi Phil,
