Yes, I noticed lots of [] as well. What's more, if you look at the scan of the original, the number is in some cases quite easily readable! Are they overworking their transcribers? Or perhaps I am hallucinating - we shall see when the certificate I have ordered from an 'unreadable' number arrives - or doesn't, if you follow me. Tina
