It would be better if you just posted the section that you want deciphering, I have tried enlarging it and it pixilates  :)

It's R.I. or R.D. I think. But a larger snip of just that part would help.

I have tried hard to post a new photo of that segment but keep getting error. I have even tried modifying original post but no luck yet

Sorry for the confusion

Hi Ness,

You need to edit the filename of your image to something slightly different, add 2018 or something to the filename.

Sarah
