I am trying to do a simple example for Fluidity which first requires me to set 
up a mesh in Gmsh, but it's not working and I can't see why. I am using the 
following .geo file:

Point(1) = {5.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.1};
Point(2) = {35.0, 0.0, 0.0, 0.1};
Point(3) = {35.0, 2.0, 0.0, 0.1};
Point(4) = {30.0, 2.0, 0.0, 0.05};
Point(5) = {30.0, 4.05, 0.0, 0.1};
Point(6) = {0.0, 4.05, 0.0, 0.1};
Point(7) = {0.0, 2.05, 0.0, 0.1};
Point(8) = {5.0, 2.0, 0.0, 0.05};
Point(9) = {5.0, 2.05, 0.0, 0.05};
Point(10) = {30.0, 2.05, 0.0, 0.05};

Line(1) = {1,2};
Line(2) = {2,3};
Line(3) = {3,4};
Line(4) = {4,8};
Line(5) = {8,1};
Line(6) = {7,9};
Line(7) = {9,10};
Line(8) = {10,5};
Line(9) = {5,6};
Line(10) = {6,7};
Line(11) = {8,9};
Line(12) = {10,4};

Line Loop(13) = {1,2,3,4,5};
Line Loop(14) = {6,7,8,9,10};
Line Loop(15) = {4,11,7,12};

Plane Surface(16) = {13};
Plane Surface(17) = {14};
Plane Surface(18) = {15};

Line Loop(19) = {1,2,3,-12,8,9,10,6,-11,5};
Physical Surface(20) = {13,14,15};

//Inflows
Physical Line(21) = {2};
Physical Line(22) = {10};
//Outlets
Physical Line(23) = {5};
Physical Line(24) = {8};
//Top and bottom
Physical Line(25) = {9};
Physical Line(26) = {1};
//Less sure about these
Physical Line(27) = {6,11};
Physical Line(28) = {3,12};

The commands "gmsh -2 -v 0 a2wayflow.geo" and "gmsh -2 -v 0 a2wayflow.geo" both 
seem to work fine. The problem occurs when I do "gmsh2triangle -2 
a2wayflow.msh" for use in Fluidity, I get the error "Unable to determine 
dimension of problem". Using the GUI, pretty much the same thing happens. Mesh 
generates no problem, looks OK, saves without complaining, then running the 
gmsh2triangle command gets the same error message.

I've thoroughly looked at it several times and a colleague who is much more 
experienced with it than me can't spot the problem either, can you tell me 
where I'm going wrong? Or is the problem at the Fluidity end?
