Hi Jeff
I would like to book a place (as a spectator not a model!) tell me where and
when and I'll do whatever it takes! Also what are the limits over there, I
was under the impression that 55 was tops but I see from Joe that 75 is an
option, is that limited to certain states or is that wide spread?
Graham.
