Shamray slagged off the picture posting on our shop manager Stepanov (who is already overworked, and gets about 3 hours of sleep a day!)  but Stepanov is on his holidays now ( honeymoon, actually) and won't be back for a couple of weeks.

Come to think of it - Shamray is supposed to be COVERING for Stepanov, and that includes posting pics... :fou:
