    What a great Christmas present, and one that will last a lifetime or two.

    Can you post the Web site and what something like this might cost? Merry Christmas!

    ..its actually a 2 piece TRC..its ivory faced with a black plastic backing on it. If you all could see the pic that I sent to Ed to go by you could tell that its exact...simply a treasure.

    I guess you supplied the photo you wanted to use. So how much did it set you back and how long did it take?

    I did the roast, it's in the oven. The wife and mom-in-law are making risotto and asparagus in the kitchen whilst I sip scotch, watch my kid play with his new toys, and browse on the 'puter (watching something on Ebay right now and thinking I might win at 10:30).

    Life is good.

    Peace all,

    Ken
