Default Truncating a text string

In A1 I have the following:


A4 Black
A4 Black+1
A4 1 colour
A4 2 colour
A4 4 colour
A3 Black
A3 Black+1
A3 1 colour
A3 2 colour
A3 4 colour


I want to strip the leading two characters and the first space away leaving
me with:



Black
Black+1
1 colour
2 colour
4 colour
Black
Black+1
1 colour
2 colour
4 colour


I've been fiddling with this for a while but can't get it - I'd appreciate
some help.


Regards,




Gavin
