Hi Carol, sorry to get back to you so late but I've been away. I would like
to see one but I can't afford it at the moment, it's on my wish list!

Are you still wanting to see and try before you buy? Have you asked
Humanware about this?
I do know someone in Bristol who may be able to help if you're really
interested.
