This was because I was trying to delete 
(unsuccessfully I thought) the 
ltdediyions one.

I have corrected the firt point and the 
second and not working still. About your 
third point, I don'y quite know what I 
am supposed to do.

I don't really mind whether ltdeditions 
is there or not. Whatever is easiest.
