Doh! Well spotted Mart, guess I was so focussed on getting ave cost correct that the little matter of reversing day and night rate got overlooked. Thanks too for the kind offer of a virtual whip round which I'll put toward the boxes of chocolates deposited with staff at our local Surgery and Pharmacy this morning where sometimes just saying thank you seems barely adequate.Martyn1981 said:
