In this case I'm running around like a headless chicken in sqlkit
anyway so I'm very *likely* to make the sort of mistake I made. :-)

However I'm getting on reasonably well with sqlkit, it's very clever
indeed with the instrospection it does so that a very few lines of
(my) code can produce a useful, working application.
