Hi Andrew,
I got it wrong! Paterson FX39 is terrible. Don't buy it!
By the way, what is the name and phone number of your local supplier and will he post to London.
I really like Rodinal as a staple developer for slow speed film as you suggest (FP4+ and slower) for acutance. The Neofin Blau (Blue) is a Metol derived developer with subsequent revisions: metol developers dissolve silver halide grain crystals for fine grain (and lower acutance susequently) - very contrasting to Rodinal's acutance appearance in the developed negative. It's great having a choice of developers with polarising characteristics to choose how to interpret the negative.
Kind regards,
RJ

Hi RJ sorry I did't catch the comment above, Vanbar here in Melbourne apparently has it.
