  2. Hi Nick

    Slight problem can't seem to find it anywhere seems to have disappeared of the PC so will have to find the single and rip it again. Easier said than done with my cataloging system "chuck it in a box" should be able to find it though at least the ozzie stuff is together so might just take longer than usual.

    Deutros.
