Hey! Thanks for all the positive comments, it means a lot to me. I've been busy, real busy!, trying to get this baby to bed.

Yesterday didn't quite go to plan, thought I'd make a couple of small changes before hitting the print button and managed to lose the CoCo-Nut / Rum Demon article lead page and a page from the 'English Wedding...Tiki Style!' article! Doh! Silly schoolboy error, luckily I had backed it up and as able to save the situation. I printed and cut out the card toppers for the limited edition bags, which surprisingly, went fairly smoothly?

And quickly!!

Tonight was pretty hectic sorting out the black and white on cream card version of the cover for the 'regular' run. Trying to get the contrasts how I wanted them took some time but I'm pleased with the final result.

Brought another 'proof' copy home for one last final read. I'm sure there'll still be plenty of errors for you guys to pick over though, so don't worry, ha, ha!

Tomorrow night I'll be printing the guts of the magazine in order to try and get some copies ready to take to 'Wheels Day', the Surrey Street Rodders' custom show this Good Friday. Touch and go right now but it won't be for the lack of effort!

I should be able to get a fair bit done with the hope of packing and finishing off the bags on Thursday night. So...fingers crossed for Good Friday! I'll probably be hanging around the HOT ROD TIKI stall trying to get them to off load some on unsuspecting hot rodders and innocent bystanders! Roll up, roll up!!

Anyway, I'm off to read the final bits and get some sleep, ready for tomorrow...MAHALO & TTFN!

All the Best from POCKETIKI - Trader Jim (Make mine a 'Horlicks' for bedtime!).
