Thanks Folks, Your knowledgeable comments have been taken on board and 
inwardly digested. Thank you David for your vote of confidence, however 
Steam was the "in thing" when i was a nipper, and "chips" you had with 
your fish on a friday. I am confident that in the fullness of time and 
with the wealth of cyber talent at my disposal my current dream will be 
fulfilled. Very much looking to see you soon,
Very best wishes, John.
