Hi Chris,

I've been absent for quite some time and have years of threads to catch up on so I might as well start at the top.
That's some exceptional detail about the locality, I would have only drilled sown to Catalan but note upon a little reading, Rosellon was a county in Catalan.

Thank you.

Gavin
