Well after months of none steaming I felt in the mood to steam yesterday so I steamed a couple of Bowman and my MF twin number 40, the mf twin ran superbly, it feels good to steam again

Mick, it's good to see you posting again...things were just not the same without you!  Hope the "camping" in the living room has come to an end, that can get old!
