I'm attaching a copy of the application form we got. The guy to talk to - Mr Bryce-Campbell - is on holiday at the moment and the site don't have email (the receptionist tells me) so I'll send a little more info when I can get some. Hope this helps a few people and that I'm not offending anyone by passing the stuff on. Cheers - Tony. P.S. Nothing against Americans, you understand, but is anyone doing this kind of stuff near us ? (Brentford, W. London) If you are, and fancy a couple of beers and some gossip on tactics, drop me some mail. STC, perhaps ?
