Hi Ed, Thanks for taking the time to make such a thoughtful reply. It was unexpected as I put Danielo's exchange down to a simple misunderstanding which hopefully is now resolved. What you said about TW is very interesting and helps me to put it into some context. I'll certainly keep asking questions (even though I know some of them will be a bit dumb!) and I'm very grateful for everything I've learned here from people on the forum.
