Any hints as to exact location - or are they really interior, like buried 
unless a complete stripdown happens?

>- - the third position is for the month it was built (1,2,3,.. 0,x,y,z)

Perfect sense. My problem is that I've just loaded up again with some 
Fuji Cheapandchearia again and forgot to look! I think I might just 
rewind into the can and have a peek...

Many thanks,

Cotty
