Sounds like you had a narrow escape.
The reason I mentioned it is because the piccy is one of mine :)
(and has never been for sale :o )

Its the piccy I won the photo comp with folks :lol:
have you got the sellers details still? It might be worth keeping an eye on...


Any way... Where abouts are you based?
