Hello Paul,

My use of capitals and the phrase "this is really quite complicated
isn't it?"  was to try and convey my frustration and how out of depth
I felt.  I was not trying to be sarcastic.  As you say, I wouldn't
expect anyone to help me if I was.  I suppose this illustrates the
limitations of text - perhaps I should have added a ;-{  or something.

Anyway your comments made me go and have look at the options menu
again and sure enough I noticed that I was on SCG15EB. Never noticed
it before - but then I never noticed that truck either.....apparently
the driver thought I was being sarcastic :-)
