I must apologise & put the record straight.  The problems I was having trying 
to use the European trickle service were due to a temporary series of hiccups 
in the tenuous chain from us (DIT) to international access.  I should have 
checked before assigning fault publicly.  The trickle servers are & were 
working as they should.

Thanks to all those who helped or offered to help.  I got the file I needed 
and  also information on how to get lost bits in the future.
