3) Have they been injured in the last month, and if 'yes', are they still able to walk

4) Is Howells School acceptable for their children.

5) Are they related to Willie Mackay

The problem with the moneybag approach (which is what this is, basically) is that once everyone has access to the same data, then any advantage you had disappears.
