Hi Ian
Yes I am the Ritchie Wilson who you very kindly gave your phone number to when I asked (on here) about radiator repairs.
I don't know Bob Culver, but I sense that I have embarrassed him and I apologise for that - Sorry Bob. I will curb my enthusiasm.
I did think that giving Bob positive ratings was a friendly thing to do.
He's always interesting and brings an almost unique perspective to Seven matters. And I like that.
I did wrongly think that there was a relationship between the rating and the number of stars - apparently not.
How are the stars assigned?
I guess Hugh Barnes has long ago given up on this thread, but if he is still around: when I was at school there was talk of a Christchurch (NZ) Seven with tandem gearboxes giving potentially very low ratios and multiple reverse gears, but top was still only 1:1. So no help there sorry.
