1 out of 2, you are in the lead at the moment and yes they were taken together at the same time.

Well done David, one point to you also means that you too are joint top of the leader board with MC & AK. Not sure where this is going at the moment but I'll keep digging some out pics until someone tells me to pack it in or words to that effect!
