A thousand apologies everybody .. I missed the 6 Mb attachment that was
meant to go directly to Keith. I have been tossing him a couple of items
today and was lazy in not checking before I clicked on send. If I had been
any quicker, perhaps I could have pulled the plug on the laptop. Enjoy the
clip (ducks for cover as shoe flies over his head from Geelong)

I'll go and sit now in the naughty corner for some time-out. :-(

Regards Roland

Thank you for that Roland - I raed the wlohe artcile and unedrtsood
everyhting perfcetly. Wow!

3in6 business for you:
1/ Will Westall be in it this year? I hope so, they were so great last
year!
2/ I am thinking of collecting some personal feedback on 3in6-2004 to
include on the website. Could you please ask your kids to put a few
thoughts to me that I could include. It may be advice for others, or it
may be some of their experiences re 3in6.

Many thanks, Ciao, Keith.
