Ettrick valley ....... not Epsom/Cheam.

I doubt he has much connectivity up there.

He's shacked up on the Ettrick for all of August and I think some of September.

I suspected he might be out of range as he usually gets back to you on his blackberry if he's in range but I ain't heard anything either.

thanks for the help but i have been through all these routes before i asked on here and it is mick that needs to sort this.

i dont want to go into detail as i dont think its fair at the moment just to say i am dissapointed and leave it at that for now.

Sorry to hear you have been dissapointed not getting Mick.He has always returned messages to me sometimes took a while but there was always a genuine reason, he is a top guy with great customer service many will vouch for his service on here.He will be very dissapointed if he has let anyone down.
