    Sorry never got back after my HHC this morning! It snowballed and I ended up virtually completing the list and sorting out stuff for Rainbows tonight as well :D

    Dusty- it sounds as if you are getting some very good help already! The links were just in case
    you were still waiting - I wish I could do what the techie bods do - I had lots of problems with viruses and spyware last year and think it must be really satisfying to be able to help people sort things out!

    I tried to sneakily confuse it by putting in on a 70 degree intensive - it just wasn't playing ball with the shorter cycles....
