It will only be better if there's nothing extra when you add more data  ;)

Needs a bit or colour ;) but it's an excellent start.  I'm glad all the equipment still worked - that must have been a relief !

looks super Fay & great that everything worked so easily after such a long break - makes a change. I really like the close crop & colour would be excellent.

Nice one,  John.
