Tyrone,

Call it a practice run if you like, but don't let it stop you doing the same again.  It sounds like you got a good response anyway, just not the one hoped for.

Years back I wrote to 12 people that either fit the bill or could have been closely connected.  I got 3 replies, none were positive but at least they were friendly.   That inspired me to continue and a little later I struck gold.

Good luck m8, and Happy Hunting
