You're welcome :0)

I enjoyed working it out- it's a lovely tune of Charlie's, and I'd be tempted to learn it on the concertina if the range wasn't so great- don't think I've got enough buttons!

Alice, you can download a free trial version (that's all I've got) of Noteworthy Composer from the net; I could then e-mail you the NWC file and you'll have the dots directly. (Far more accurate transfer than via ABC, I'd imagine.)

I should say also, that the notated rhythm is only an approximation of the hornpipe rhythm (which is almost impossible to notate accurately); but close enough, particularly if you've already heard it played.
