Thanks for the comments Slawek.

Something else to add to my 'must try' list, although the majority of the time I do prefer the look that my two go to print developers give me without the need of an extra toning step - Ilford MG and home mixed D72 are the developers btw.

And it's good to hear that someone else is trying out these lesser known developer mixes as well.
