Hi greypost. Many thanks for your reply. I'm aware it's a very old thread and said I would chance it, in the hope of reply. I also emailed. Here's to hoping. Happy new year

Sammy, you've noticed the post is old. Try contacting Jo by clicking on her name and sending a personal message. It's doubtful she'll be checking back for replies. If she still has the same email address she registered with GR they can notify her there's a message in the system. You have to hope she is able to receive it and to reply. There are many reasons you might not hear back.
