Yep, you sussed it, that's what I'm hoping for at the end of the day Richard.   Although TBH with you, the downgrade was forced slightly by having to leave a well paid job a few months ago, so what with the lack of similar salaried jobs around here that's what embarked me on to this route.  A lot of my stuff was bought brand new originally, but now I'm looking at only the second hand market (or cheap foreign imports  ).  So we'll see what happens...
