Thank you, Ted.  I have been far too lazy to do this (and now you have done it for me).  I'll try to put it to good use.

Yes thanks, this is helpful. Although I'm a bit wary of a pattern that "swings both ways" - sounds a bit rude 

Cheers,

Nigel

I'm a bit wary of a pattern that "swings both ways"

Clarification: That particular pattern group neither swings nor is straight.  There are no 16th notes in any of the patterns, so they can be used in songs that swing and songs that don't.

Thank U !! That's really helpful, why haven't I thought of doing that...? Must Take some time and sort out what patterns I find most useful for different "moods"... spend far to much time looking for the "right" pattern for some of my songs.
