I was not too sure of exactly why the code looked odd.
as mentioned in another post I should really have referred to the 
circular references.

I am new to python (about 6 months of home hacking), I looked at the code 
to see if it could improve my knowledge & my responses have been intended 
to spark a 2 way discussion of the pro's & cons of the approach.
So far that seems to be working, I expect by the end of this I will have 
learnt much about real world python apps.
