Thanks all. 
 
 Unfortunately I'm away from tomorrow morning until mid-next week and can't get the leathers to any of the above before race day, so I'll have to run the gauntlet with the scrutineers. I just hope they hold gaff tape in the same high regard as I do!
 
 I'll then pay nine lives a visit shortly after snet when they can repair the holes I'm about to make at snet!
 
 Cheers,
 
 Ali
