Thanks for the heads up Dave :-) I'm suspicious of everybody now days & I'm just a spring chicken. We live in a time of cyber crime beyond our understanding. Recently a woman near me was drugged by a chemical handed to her on a business card. Its hard to keep a step ahead of the bad guys but the only way is to keep watching where you step....... But in my garden i am Emperor of the jewels !
