Thanks, I actually used this term in the end. You and Gian both got through the smoke and understood that 'salva' was not 'salvo' in any form or fashion. Nicely done, thank you.

Asker: Many thanks to you as well Gian. I wanted to split the points but, since I don't think it's possible, I gave them to the earliest response. Your confidence in the answer helped mine though. Thanks again.
