Thanks everyone for the kind words!

Please note that the error bars may seem large but they are really not that bad since the error is +/- 0.009 to 0.011 mags ... something which I can certainly live with.

Also, please note that the magnitude drop due to the transit is 0.025 mags. In other words, the host star goes from mag 12.170 to 12.195 ... really a very small change and this is what makes me so happy about the result.

Due to a bad cold, I have been AWOL and, hence, for the late reply.
