Keith - thanks - please pass on my commiserations. I have at least some idea how he must be feeling. Hope he's ok otherwise.
David W tks. Intend dumping some excess baggage on you for your trip home if ok.

Carla - brewing it is easy - we've got a stainless plunger (and a plastic backup!)so as long as you can brace for loong enough to fill the thing, then pluuunge, easypeasy.
