Hi Tony,

That's wonderful news.  Yes, sometimes persistence pays.

Was it the same person as the one who helped me?


Regards,

No Kathleen, it was someone else.  Even though I wrote to your chap, a woman replied & when I queried some info, she was most helpful to explain everything.  So they seem a helpful office, but only if you write in rather than email or telephone  ;)

Thanks for your encouragement, without which I probably wouldn't have pursued the matter.  Regards, TonyR.
