    That's really good news. I was sure that it would end fine and I'm glad that Nick is joining the new company.

    Wow! I'm impressed. That was quick and, apparently, tidy.

    You're saying that 1500 is expensive? The prices dropped since I bought mine 3 months ago (I paid 2000 quids) so I say it is a reasonable price.

    wow was it really that expensive 3 months ago?

    anyway, prices have not changed since rock went into administration or since they were bought by stone. So one can assume they are not up to date prices, and who knows they might change soon when stone and rock got it all figured out and know what they wanna do
