- Yes I will, Lusil - he's not very good at getting back to us so if I don't hear I'll be seeing him on Wednesday for my lesson and I'll make sure he gives me an answer then! Thank you!

I have just heard back from my tutor - apparently, he can now open the PDFs (not having done anything to solve the problem!) So huge thanks for your patience on this - you've been great.
Very best
