Thanks 

Thanks for your comments on my talk page. I don't know the protocol, and I didn't mean to appear rude or being a timewaster by deleting them. I assumed it was my talk page so I can take out/leave what I want there?
You mean well, but I didn't see very much point in replying to the points you make, particularly as replying by me would just look like sour grapes. As you rightly say, I have to make my own mind up about staying/going. For various reasons, I have decided on the latter. Colin
