Hi Guys,
Here's a little more reading material for you if you need a more in depth approch to the process. A friend of mine, Kerry Pinkerton, wrote this on the Imperial Club forum a few years ago. He had sent me an e-mail asking for advice, and after several messages between us, he added our question and answer sessions to his saga, so rather than re-writing most of it, you may refer to it here:

I think between the both of us, we pretty well covered everything. If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask.
