Hi Ian, 
greetings from a sunny spring Saturday afternoon in Hove. Yeah, the shops
doing fine after our relocation to the much larger premises about 18 months
back. I'm currently trying to build bridges with the computer with which I
have definitely not had a good relationship in the past. Hence my previous
unavailability on the Email and late appearance on the LUG. Anyway, I'm
slowly creeping up the learning curve. 

As to the darkroom back at home, it is going to be established in a purpose
built enclosure in the garage. The room has now been built, plastered,
floored and fitted out with kitchen units on two sides ( L shape ). The V35
has been joined by a Focomat 1c (and a Durst M800 just in case I am tempted
to dabble with medium format).That just leaves me to have the electrics
sorted and I shall be as happy as a sandboy.

Did you manage to haul your Zone XI Cold Light enlarger up to your mountain
top in Kathmandu ? 

look forward to seeing you when you are over,
 
Regards,

Arthur
