Hello Bill

Thanks for the heads up - yes, I am aware of them as they have a big web presence between them, techy guys that they are!  Unfortunately I have not seen anything to indicate they may be interested in graves and dusty poll books. If I knew where the connection lay I may have found the guts to "cold call" sometime in the past. 

Best wishes

Kate

Hi Brenda

We'll get it cracked between us, sometime! Unfortunately I have too many demands on my time at the moment and it is dangerous to dip the toe back in the water... just being back on this board has got the old itch to pry going again - and that TV prog doesn't help!  I just have to get my MSc under my belt and maybe, in two years' time, I can have my evenings back  ::)

Cheers
