Hi Adam,

That works great, nearly there.
The only problem now is that it puts a big area of white space infront of
most of the entries.
I guess this is something to do with the "\settowidth\labelwidth", "
\leftmargin\labelwidth" or "\advance\leftmargin\labelsep" commands.

I'll experiment with these and see what happens!

Cheers,
Owen
