    Great stuff! And be sure to let us know the time it took to hear back from N. Ireland. I have been delaying as I don't want to wait months for a response.

Anyway it reads Redhill, Co Cavan then underneath in brackets it is ride or side then it looks like repost and it ends in side I think though I am not sure

    Hi it looks like repost/inside? whatever that means, hope this helps, Lee
