Thanks a lot, Keith.
Unfortunately there is usually a fallout with me using T-cut and elbow-grease. People tend to fallout with me as I have difficulty in mixing the two together ;-)

Marvellous image, if that were a Jigsaw puzzle I'd love a go at it, sure would keep me quiet for a few winter evenings.

Thank you, Maurice. I'm sure you are right about it making a good jigsaw. I don't know how I would find the time to do it though. I'm one of those who wishes there was 24 hrs in a night, as well as a day, so that I could get more done.
