Thanks for the input Firebrand.

One of these days I need to investigate overseas training, although at the price difference (nearly a factor of ten) compared to that price at which I can get "bare bones but servicable" training within 2 km of my desk, I'll probably never pursue it. I can stay and eat at home so I avoid the travel hassels and I do have to pay for the exams separately, but that's all Ok by me!
