    Thanks for you help, sorry if its caused some flustering!

    Don't flatter yourself.

    People on here who know what they're talking about take time out of their day to offer help and advice for free. I'm sure its no skin off their nose if somebody decides they know better and goes ahead with a bad idea regardless. They've still given lots of help to usually polite and grateful people.

    OP - your repeated use of words such as 'presumably', 'seems', and the biggest small word in the English language - IF - ought to be the loudest warning.

    I appreciate how this post comes across, apologies for that!
    Perhaps it is a case of that because I do feel this is a win win scenario despite the advice here. Ill pursue the idea and see where it gets me.


    Thanks for all your help though, it has helped me come to a pathway which is exactly what this forum is for! (Even if it isn't exactly the pathway advised haha!)


    All the best
