I was number 2385.

Done.

Tony, I am at a loss to understand any potential security concerns developers may have regarding the gun quarter. At last check, the Birmingham City Police head quarters was located on Steelhouse Lane, right in the heart of the old Birmingham Gun Quarter!!! Dose city Council lack faith in the Cities law enforcement capability?

Done two days ago. Also added comments on some U/K Newspaper Web Sites.

Tony Good work on getting all the signitures to try to combat the "Stupids" I have contacted Jack Rowe and I think he will be on Site to-day. Have several of my US.Clients signing.....Do you have a copy of David williams's Birmingham Gun Trade" For a Non Gunmaker he did a Great Job. I bought 20 copies as gifts to clients with "Brummie Workhorses"..(Most of them also have London "Thoroughbreds". I'm sure you have heard the Quote..."Birmingham Built Guns are the Workhorses, Not the Thoroughbreds!!!!!! BUT they shoot as straight and last as long as their Costly Cousins from London......Dont know who wrote that, but It sure started some fights between some Gunmakers Years ago !!!Keep up the Good Work....dt/CC.

I do have that book and have read it. thanks for the support.

Cheers

PS I've heard they started to take the signs down in the city for the Birmingham gun quarter...I hope this isn't true. I so hope that Tim Huxtable gets booted out next local elections.
