Very well said, Richard. Thanks very much to Dave Cragg and Mark Smith 
as well. A bit of lightening up works miracles!

Interestingly, when I first got together with my wife back in 1971, she 
had to stay in Paris to do her PhD and I was left in London. We had a 
similar experience with our snailmails. In the end, I had to take a few 
days off from the computer department where I worked to fly to Paris and 
sort it out. Even today, I have similar problems with what little 
remains of my family in England. The only problem now is that popping on 
an aeroplane for a quick trip from Brazil (where I now live) is a bit 
more costly!
