    Andrew – your site is still helping others! Thanks so much for publishing the printer cleaning directions. As an FYI, after I re-assembled the machine, I had a door open error. After fooling around with the side covers for a while I decided to remove the back cover and have a look. I forgot to connect the three data cables that go to the one pc board. Oops. I Hope this may help some other poor soul.

    Thanks again!

    Andrew, Thank’s for the directions to clean my HP2605dn. I’m a old Yank living in Ormond Beach Florida, and worked with a lot of Brits in Saudi Arabia and Kuwait (years ago, sorry I don’t remember their names.)

    Best to you and the family,
    Mike

  • Tolii is an alumnUS, as there is only one of him!

    [P.S. Please note that although my website (http://freespace.virgin.net/andrew.smith2020, requested in your "Leave a Reply" area) may be of interest, particularly the section on my sponsored walk for the Iraqi Marsh Arabs, some of it is out-of-date, and in particular some of the web and email links are no longer functioning.]

    Hi Andrew,

    Long time-no see! Steve Brecht told me you had moved to England so I decided to search for you on the ‘net.

    We’ve moved to Bobcaygeon (about 20 minutes NE of Lindsay) ten years ago. Actually, we’re about 6 km south of Bobcaygeon right on Pigeon Lake. I purchased a 420 when we moved here so have been doing a bit of sailing.

    Would like to hear from you!

    Bruce

    • Hi Bruce!

      How wonderful to hear from you! I’ll write you an email now. Sorry for the delay in replying – was moving this website between hosting companies.

      Cheers,
      ~Andrew~

  • By the way I live in Tadley, Hampshire and I am in a band with John Dennet (Whitchurch Butcher). Our blues band is playing at The Kings Head in Whitchurch on Saturday 6th March. I owe you a pint and hope you can come along.

  • Hello

    I was looking into the names behind some graves in Putney cemetery and I took a photo of the inscription on Henry and Leonard’s gravestone (also Lillian). I have been looking into some of the companies Henry worked for, fascinating stuff.
    I discovered your website and had to double check your were of the same family!
    As you probably know Henry (Leonard’s father) worked for Imperial Airways from its inception, which was to go on to become BOAC (Henry left at this time) and later British Airways! “Aviation and Engineering Owe Him a Great Debt” as it says on his gravestone.

    Just thought I would make the connection (with the living Reeves Hall’s!) as I have made a connection with the sadly departed ones. I hope you don’t mind.

    Regards, The Quiet Busker.
