Quite a bizarre random coincidence that this thread has crept back up the board on the same weekend I happen to be visiting my parents & fartin' around on the internet!

I do definitely like the Black Country more than Birmingham, although ultimately it IS all north of Winchester :>)

Glad to know the CDs arrived in one piece, Bruce. I've been playing yours, often in the hour or so before going to bed...I find it makes GREAT late-night music.

Hoping to get down to Bromyard later today; so might just bump into one or two of you there.
