Well, I'm going to hold my hand up-ooooh it's just started to snow - and confess that I cheated BIGTIME.I got about 14 on my own (without spending too much time on it) then when I saw how Big Kev had done, I couldn't let a great big southerner get all the glory. So this very small northerner copied one of the questions, punched it into Google and it came up with a website which had all the answers. There. Hee hee, I don't feel bad because it just shows how useful Google is and how resourceful I am
