Thanks Alan, and thanks for your concern. I'll pass on the advice (politely) I appreciate your input, but find a little short in explanation. If someone is wrong, and you have information to suggest they may be being misled by what they are reading, it's sometimes best to say what is wrong with the path they are on, not, just that it's wrong. I haven't been pulling random nuggets of internet information, but using the government advice sources. Which appear to be wrong?...confused.
My friend has sought professional advice, and was advised to follow this route.
