Hi Willi,

Glad to hear that I legendary somewhere.  Hope the lists are useful.
I must admit that I had never had a broad enough scope of information
(from players) in ROI to notice that limited slots was in play in
that module but what you say now makes sense and I think confirms that
they are operating in NIC1, UK.

Cheers,
                Dean
