Thanks

I did follow the advice and send the requested info to ale. Ale has not 
responded yet - he may be out of town. I have forwarded a copy directly to 
you and to the list - I had held back on posting to the list in case someone 
object to the amount of information - but I have had a couple of people ask 
me to post the full info so I have done so -

I hope that is OK

Thanks again
