Wow, Vector, that's list and a half!
Great work thanks so much on behalf of all.
It may be an idea to consolidate it into a list in the next post, also highlighting ( perhaps in red ) the latest meet event so that people can see at a glance.
So much info, thanks for taking the time to post and share.
If there's anything I can help with in any way, you only have to ask
Thanks
Jim
