Mike,

Patience Grasshopper, for most of us they are not easy to read and you only put them up yesterday. It sometimes takes me days to figures them out and I have only just seen your thread.

It would also help if you posted the photos upright as the kanji are written and read that way.

Regards,
Stu

I'll flip them.

Thanks very much guy's, really appreciated.
Sorry if I seemed a bit impatient, certainly not my intention at all

Thanks again & hopefully I can return the favour one day
