Errrmmm... No. There has to be a balance somewhere. The odd favour is ok. What I normally do is clearly state what I can do and what I simply won’t accept.

I wasn't talking about doing any favours, dear boy. I was talking about not critisising fellow FT's, whether it is to curry favour with an evil school; have a go at the school, or to point the finger in any way to make oneself look good.
