Thanks for sharing those pics Steve (And my, you really are tall, you dwarf Bob. As Scott Adams says, big people are scary. They take up too much space and emit a high pitched, disconcerting noise that only people under 5ft6in can hear.)

You've been a lucky boy. There's nothing quite like getting up close and personal to a decent meteorite collection. I had the honour of being invited to see Rob Elliott's collection a couple of years ago and it's still one of my life's highlights. To feel the weight of a really big iron is almost unreal.

And it's great to see collectors letting another enthusiast get a really good look, too. I think it happens far more often than we hear about. These natural treasures should be enjoyed and it shows what a great bunch of guys (and gals) we are at heart.

Thanks again for the pics

Rob McC
