   Thanks Brian - I sent off a letter to the address that Rasta sent - and will   
   wait and see if that gets a reply before I try on line - but will go and   
   have a look anyway - and print a copy of this message so that I will have it   
   for future reference. It is a long process this business of tying up loose   
   ends isn't it? Hopefully it gets a bit easier - pretty raw right now.
