Interested to see what people get.

Be patient for a few seconds and the results table will appear. Oh and remember forum rules and don't use the linked image option. ;)

The result is slightly better than I stated I got in Foz' thread.  8-)

Paul, that's pathetic. You should be able to do much better. In your thread I dropped a couple of links to see if you could get something better. :)
