June - you aren't the only one who's impressed ! 

To be perfectly honest, you do start to understand it eventually - but it takes an awful lot of concentration and skill, therefore I take my hat off to anyone who can read it !!

June,

No problem. I think once you start comparing other people's work
against the original document, you will be surprised how quickly
the words begin to stand out.
