  13.     Hi everybody,
  14.  
  15.     imagine that something is registered somewhere, e.g.  a report is
  16.     registered at an office.
  17.  
  18.     What do you then call that office?  "The registration office"
  19.     or "The registering office"? (I suspect the former being correct.)
