I can never stick to a plan either - but your result speaks for
itself, Mekon - it's a beauty. You're entitled to be very proud, both
of grandson and cradle. I don't think a pic of the wee man in it
would come amiss either when possible...

PS - is Mekon just a random name, or did you grow up with Dan Dare
too...? G


Sometime toward the end of next month I should be able to provide a pic
of the cradle in use. I'll spare you a pic of the change table in
operation though.

Yes I grew up with Dan Dare in the Eagle comics too. Back in the early
days of the internet I was a heavy user of IRC and my nick there
started out as Dan Dare. Well, the reference was lost on most Americans
and it attracted the attention of a lot of gay guys. So I changed to
the dark side and became Mekon.

I also collect Biggles books and have just recently sent for the last
book to make my collection complete - "Biggles Looks Back". When it
arrives I will have all 98 plus many duplicates.
