Again, I would say we should draw the line at any permanent physical scarring. Now, emotional and physiological scarring on the other hand ...

But Lou, emotional and psychological scarring is the worst kind. Physical scars become badges of honor eventually. biggrin

And here is a BOC News update:

Arriving home late last night I discovered a package waiting for me. Upon opening said package I discovered that ...

The pins have arrived, and ahead of schedule!

Also, they look fan-friggin-tastic, even better than I imagined they would. Here is a photo I just snapped showing the pin fitted to the spiffing cap that Robert Wiggins sent me, (this pic does not do justice to either the pin or the cap as both look even better in person):



I have to travel again today but when I return home I will get busy sending out the pins and sorting out the billing to you all.

Still time to place your orders as about 40 pins are yet available.

Later all.

You choose to pay them yourself. Just pick that you're sending money to somebody (not paying to a business!) and they charge the fee on you.

I'm glad you mentioned that, lederhosen and Hasse. I would have been unaware of that.

And thank you, Lou!
