This Competition is now registered.
Unfortunately as I resigned as Mod/Admin I cannot change the detail on the OP to update this.
It feels like I'm 2 again.

[johnrm]

How can I edit the OP?

[delzep]

I'll look after it in the morning (on the phone at the mo and it's acting the maggot on me a  bit)

No Drop points as yet.
This is a small competition so is going to lean on NHC Express.
