    HEXAMINE. PLEASE READ!

    I don't wish to sound hostile or in any way in support of over draconian laws but the Home Office mean business on this and those found wanting have paid a very heavy price for thinking they have the advantage.

    A mate suggested this so I just looked at the prices. £420 for my family!!!......Nice Idea but not in this financial climate! May be just me but even £140 is borderline. Another time maybe.
