Not only that, but it's exactly what I was after - and fastest, too,

While we're being pedantic, there are many more ways to be too many to

Thanks very much for the help to all who replied.
I'd completely missed the difference between:
class Foo:
i = 12345
a = Foo()
b = Foo()
a.i = 678
and Foo.i = 678
Yeah, I know...
