As you say, similar. But quite happy to accept that an IAM pass would be equivalent to a Bronze, it's just that we don't get the chance of being graded.

Cool, where do they meet? I was thinking of getting involved, but really to busy with the other lot now.

I did try the ripley IAM but I didn't really get on with them. Maybe being 24 not 64 had something to do with that.

Shame
it must have been meeting me, wasn't it
. Seriously I would be interested to know what (or who
) put you off.
