Hi @Pickersgill-Cunliffe:, are you still pondering over this? --Ykraps (talk) 05:13, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Ykraps: Work constraints combined with a bad cold mean I probably won't get to this until Sunday. Apologies that I can't do it quicker. Pickersgill-Cunliffe (talk) 12:00, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
No Problem. --Ykraps (talk) 07:29, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
