I’ve just reread this thread and realize I have been going off on a tangent. (I thought you were looking for ways to avoid whatever you are paying…)

I do not know how many Yanks are on this Forum and, if they do exist, they do not seem keen to join the conversation.
It’s obviously not a subject I can usefully debate, so I’ll leave you to it.
