Andy,
 
I think your mistaken with what i actually wrote in the last mail i sent, it was just the last
paragraph, starting andy.. I do not use gmail, though i have an account. I can see why
it looks like i wrote more of it with the auto added 'James Dalley wrote:' Sorry for any confusion..
 
James D
