    Thanks Cali and Anna The firm I found was local, had been near here [fear of slamder] for 50 years and it was actually the halfwitted lady in the office that, both times I contacted them, got my details wrong.

    Anyway thanks for link Cali.

              Surely we have only the word of 'the half-witted woman' on that, salymap

              And you & Jen spotted the dodgy quote, my dear Miss Marple

                Nice try, Ammy. Then along came saly with her trump card!
                "...the isle is full of noises,
                Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
                Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
                Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

                  'Trump' is not a word I'd use in the circumstances if I were you, Caliban

                    Ah. Thanks for pointing that out. This usually happens when Wimbledon is on. Cue to use too.

                        Amsy, I don't wish to come across as a pedant, but surely you mean in the circumstances.
