Excellent!
The boys can help me sort through the mound of information I'm being 
flooded with on the topic of selective soldering machines.  Despite 
specifying what sort of characteristics I'm looking for in a machine 
there have been a couple of sales people who have simply dumped info on 
me concerning all of their offerings...

And of course we will have to get the boys out for a sail, and some beer 
and a donair.

regards,
