No point in intervening 'cos it would only delay the inevitable, and like you say, more time for them to start afresh somewhere else. Painful to watch all the same.Changing the subject for anyone interested, The One Show on BBC1 7pm tomorrow is hopefully showing an item on the Northern Kites Project (I say hopefully because it was supposed to be on a couple of weeks back but was cancelled last minute) so don't blame me if you watch and it isn't on. Will post a link after it has aired anyway for anyone who misses it but would like to see. CheersAlan M</blockquote>
