Rushed home and did a quick test before doing the jumpers and found the link between BR2 & C5 -ve points was suspect. Sometimes it would make. So I did jumpers to both the +ve and -ve, plugged her in and she's a goer.

Thanks Daniel for the heads up and to Marty for the offer. I couldn't let Marty have a go at it coz then I have to play with only one hand/flipper to ensure his high score would last   

Thanks again guys for the help and support. 

Haha!  Thanks Rob.  BTW - I found out a 'easter egg' in TOMMY so you can play the full game (all balls) with the blinders ON!  I'm sure in that mode, on the first ball you'd still beat me.
