Certainly agree with the Branson bit Brandy but that's just to let us get into what's there - strange though how there's not much difference in price between providers when you look closely.It is the way of the world these days that everybody wants a cut of yer' brass though isn't it? But I suppose the money to get the stuff on line and pay for band width has to come from somewhere.

Jeff I occasionally do the same thing with my modest collection of Leeds United programmes dating back to the late '60s.I've used them as a source of research when people on this site are asking for the name of some long lost Leeds nightclub.... Have you got Leeds v Newcastle - August 1969?? that was my first game at Elland Road (1-1 draw)
