See my earlier apologium. No I had not - I find backgrounds such as you had
used in the first two slides actively unpleasant, so I tend to shy off. I
did glance at all of them - but really only the first two registered. After
I had replied to Tony I went back and looked and deliberately started at the
end.

Yes - it's great. I apologise for not starting at the end as well as the
beginning before "putting pen to paper". But after two slides, I didn't
really look properly at anything else.

Yes - until I saw Tony's email I had not queried that what I was seeing was
what you had created.

I'm truly grateful to you for doing this. :-) It will make a big difference
if anyone uses it. And I'll just keep my eyes shut during the titles!
