I've attached the first reply I received - before receiving a 
conflicting one that led to the last exchange.  Feel free to print it 
out and see the manager for his reaction.  By now, he should have 
received a directive and if he hasn't, I'll certainly go on complaining, 
as I hope, will you!  Not sure if the list server allows attachments, so 
I'm sending off-list as well as on the list.

Kind regards,        Barry.
