Thanks for the mention Jackie, This sounds like a "Who's Who and Paddles
What! What With! and Why!" of kayaking?
Maybe there should be a list of headings so there was some consistency?
Possibly also a length limit? Obviously 
it should only include volunteers. Any ideas/opinions! If four or more
people request this sort of data and Jackie is happy 
with it, I'ld be glad to act as a collection point and collate. It would be
a different email address though. Wasn't Sandy 
doing something similar at one stage?
PS
Jackie, I've finally worked out how to do paragraphs and line spacing
properly in HTML !   
Will practice on the towing thread ! 

All the best, PeterO 
(Ombri is the Spanish for many Osmans :~)
