    I've been Confused for years Graeme so don't worry!

    I always thought Silver was the way to go mate and I was very Stubborn in my thinking as I had only ever seen Pictures of Saffy's until I went to the Triangle last year and saw Marks Saffy with Black Alloys... It was then I realised what a lot of you guys had been telling me all along... GO BLACK!
