Thanks very much for the feedback all.
The message is basically what I was expecting, but hoping wouldn't be.
I will finish stripping it and continue my search for a worthy frameset to do a restore on.
Now, the sun is shining, my chores are done, the allergy medicine has been taken - time to turn the pedals for a while.
I think the Derek Bailey will get a run today.
Enjoy the weekend everyone,
