Doh. It's that simple?!
I had presumed that where properties are generated as a result of
"belongs_to/has n" we could not declare them explicitly as well. It is
a little confusing. Maybe the belongs_to could accept a :default
value. Something for more knowledgeable DM folk to ponder...

Many thanks Chris,
George
