This is really intended as a bit of bedtime reading for 'UKPete' but if you have not seen it already, it makes interesting reading

I think that there are more enthusiasts out there than we realise...they just havn't found this website yet...

Nice article about Mr.World...I wouldn't mind a workshop like that, together with the better weather to go with it.
