    DONE.

    The footnote [*8] has been added with your fix.

    And I adjusted the date format on that table to dd/mm/yyyy

    Strange. In the US, most people and places use mm/dd/yyyy. In the military, we used dd/mm/yyyy. I got used to it, which helped me later.
    I worked in the oil and gas industry for years, and had communicated internationally a lot. Dates could have been confusing there.

    Although I've lived in the UK all my life and was brought up to use the British date format(dd/mm/yyyy), I now much prefer to use the European
    date format(dd.mm.yyyy).

    Regards,
    Martin
