      Hi.
        I shall try again, my first effort was blocked, so I have taken out a few bits that might
      have been mis-interpreted.

      -----------------
         This was my first entry into this contest and I must admit I found it fascinating! I did not
      use a logging program to send the exchange, as I us N1MM, and am not familiar with SD or
      any of the other programs.  To start with, I messed up and sent my own post code for the
      first two contacts (!) despite thinking about it before starting the contest.
        I then got into the swing of it, and enjoyed the whole thing. 

        One post code that did throw me was 762EQ, and later 742EQ, these don't even seem like
      post codes to me!  Then I received S51PS and nearly mistook that for a call sign!

        As for the ubiquitous NP263BA, I only got that 9 times so am feeling cheated!! 

         Very enjoyable and good fun though, a real change from the norm!

        I hope there was nothing "offensive" this time!


      Regards from Roger, G3LDI
      Swardeston, Norfolk.
