* I apologise if this has been received twice.  A bit of a problem with my GMAIL

Tom,
I've tried adding "box-sizing: border-box;" but it hasn't made any
difference.  I'm using Windows on my PC.  Unfortunately cannot get
hold of a Mac.

I wonder if it is to do with the older version of Chrome (using
Version 49.0.2623.112 on Windows XP, yes, I know it is old!).
Thanks anyway.
