Hi Jannie,

Remember, when all else fails a cup of tea and a good swear will often help! It won't solve the problem but it will make you feel better.

I have to say that I have just looked at some prunes I have in the cupboard and none of them have as many wrinkles as you two!

I hope good will come from this flaw and the revision overclocks the system to over 6Ghz ;D
