"you really gotta look in Bentley more often Ramblin'  Jack :)"

Yeah, because it's so darn fascinating.

I'm presently reading "The Worst Journey in the World," Apsley
Cherry-Garrard's account of the 1910-1913 Scott expedition to be the
first to reach the South Pole (beaten by Amundsen).

That's a lot more interesting.

"yes, those two stops, I think a 17 or a 19 mm open end fits on them.
Look closely."

Well there's my problem. Even with the striker plate all the way
forward, the door does not close flush with the body, and doesn't even
come close to touching them little bumpers.
