[access-uk] Cécogramme was Re: [access-uk] Re: printing labels

The word should be 'Cécogramme'.  It is a French word, which could be 
translated as 'Post for the blind', in other words, the equivalent of the 
UKs 'Articles for the Blind'.  'Cécogramme' should be written on the 
address label of any 'Articles for the Blind' post which is sent overseas.
The 'Céco' part of the word comes from the Latin 'Caecus', which means blind.

Hope this helps, and sorry for straying off topic.

All the best,

Christopher
