I must apologise for not having responded Hamish - my computer developed major problems that could only be solved by a complete re installation and although I backed up all my emails I must have missed yours in all the restoration process.
Plus when I found it I couldn't read it to begin with until I realised that I needed to download the Adobe Acrobat reader again due to the pdf format the info was in.
I was about to reply and confirm my interest when I saw the email about the postponement. I guess one extra wouldn't have made a difference to the decision though so hopefully it will all come together next year!

Please do not apologise, Trefor. I was disappointed that so few people actually responded to my original E-mails - not even to acknowledge receipt of my messages, let alone give me their decisions! However, I am sure that they had their reasons, and I know these situations can occur very easily. I am keeping everything (!) crossed for a success next year, and I will be announcing the precise dates later this year. So, watch this space!
I am sorry to hear of your computer problems, and here's me thinking I am the only fellow around here who has them! It was only after I began trying to send out 'Gathering' information as attachments that I discovered I needed Microsoft Office and Acrobat Reader in order to do so - and my PC had neither. Thanks to the generous help of friends I now have both but I am scared rigid when I look at 'Office'!! Life was SO much simpler before I was given my first PC as a retirement gift!!!
Take care,
Ham.

The problem free computer has yet to be invented Hamish!
I made the mistake of accepting some free security software from my ISP - British Telecom. I didn't like it and it slowed everything up so I uninstalled it only to then get error messages ever after and then Microsoft programs, including my email started playing up also and no attempt at running a restore worked so I had no option.
Still, should behave itself for a while now!
