[John Knight]

Yet again, apologies to other 'pluggers', please read below. :)

Make lunch, not war.

The address I used would've been from an email previously sent, I'm 
requesting an alternate address please (got any yahoo or 'shotmail' accounts 
(etc.)?). :)

I would've been using the address sent by Kim, copied and pasted.

Fair enough, although my excuse this time is sending emails late at night on 
a 15" monitor where a letter mis-alignment (for lack of a better term) can 
be damn near difficult to spot. The moral of the story is don't proof read 
from a CRT monitor when tired, "not good fer ye". Please no more OT mail 
from this (as we're already annoying people as far as inbox space goes), 
would I be able to have an alternate address off-list please (it's always 
good to have a backup)?

Tah. :)
