Haven't been able to get on-line for ages as the PC is plaing up & I'm spending a lot of my spare time (when I'm not at festivals or working) trying to convince PC Servicecall that it needs fixing. Am now on my third DVD-RW drive & know all about destroying & creating partitions on my hard disk. I wish I didn't really!! Sending positive thoughts to the Barton Crew / Folkaholics {{{{Ross}}}} - may you always have music! Hil |
