Thanks for the quick reply and it works perfectly.
Would be good if this was added to the docs on the site, I saw this
was the way it was done in some old screencasts where they were still
calling models out of django.core and after reading the official docs
and seeing that the simplest way to call admin was class Admin: pass,
I thought the __str__ and __unicode__ method wasn't needed anymore.
Also, please don't confuse a printer with a movie. I've carried this
name for over 15 years now, on BBS and the web and as you might
imagine, the comments I've gotten since that movie came out have
gotten rather tiresome over the years.
:p
