This previous thread should help. Erlend & Stan's comments are the ones to go by.

Sedgehog/Hedgehog.

Sorry for wasting everyone's time then.

As usual, a post lies unanswered for hours and hours, then somebody tries to answer it and..... well, you know the rest.

Looks like I'm not the only one that gets them the wrong way around.
