That's what I thought too. Bob made me second-guess myself. What
threw me was looking at a 3.5" and seeing that W-E is a closed notch,
which I hurredly assumed to be the case for 5.25. Which it isn't - it's
the opposite. Now on reflection I remember taking foil off a 5.25 to
write to it (and on the C64-1541 turning the disk over and making a
notch so as to use both sides)

All of which I'm sure is immensely helpful to Mr Edmondson ;-)
