Stella tells me that Bilbo ran aground near Venice and didn't take part in the shoot, Dominique has said he's has problems with the maintenance carried out on the boat. have requested photos from both parties and given Dominique the JRA join us link.

if I get any more info I'll post here.

Dominique has just emailed to say the deal is done and Bilbo is off to Italie!  I've asked him to write it up (in French!) for the magazine as he's going to join the Association!

great result all round I'd say!
