Help - thought I'd attached it (with 'Upload Image File' but it's not there!!!

You need to click the 'click here' option before you close the window. I have fixed it for you.

Is this it?

Thanks Jane

OK - anyone any idea what it might mean

Customs man?

Hi,

It's almost certainly 'Preventive Service' which is linked to early Customs & Excise. See attached page I found with a number of references to it. Also note date at top of page.
Hope this helps.

Arghh! upload of page image keeps failing - Have you an email address I can send it to?

Terry.

Thanks hsw and Terry

Well I would give e-amil address, but I guess it is the wrong thing to do on a public site - does this forum have a personal message thing?

Aah - i think you press the little message button below the post - i will do that

Click on the envelope under a post from the person you want to message...

Terry there is a size limit on files uploaded (if it's a full page scan that's probably the problem). How ever you can always upload files to your own hosting or file sharing sites and then put a link in the forum.
