No probs Peter, just PM me so I can e-mail you a map of where we are.
Today I got round to making the infrared accessory for my Metz 45CL3 flashgun. Image attached.
I have previously made a diffuser for the Metz which is almost never off it due to the quality of light it produces. Link to the thread and pics on making that.

Instead of the bowl being attached to the mounting plate, I stuck velcro to the front on this one. The Cokin has a land 7mm wide on one side, and I made up and attached a velcro ring to that so as to allow the filter to be detatchable for safe storage. While light tight at the front there are some ventilation slots at the side to allow heat from the flash tube to eascape. The small amount of visible light that gets through those is not enough to degrade the IR image.
