Although, to be fair it may have helped to actually put up a date on the website when the lists were required by?

How many are you waiting for in the various periods?

LOL, after tomorrow it will be too late to change it.

If its holding things up I can get it across tonight.

Rob

it doesn't cause any problems neccessarily... only if you want to see a R&R 2 weeks before

List on its way now.
