I have a cheap ebay cable and vwtool but am reluctant to disconnect in case I get an airbag light in the cluster which I am unable to extistinguish... If you could reassure or guide me then I could be persuaded to disconnect the airbag connector from the steering wheel.

Did you want a view of the connector unconnected?

I will go down fighting on this one. This car should be enjoyed and not mothballed or destroyed!
If you keep ignition off while airbag is disconnected it will not register fault code. Even if you have ignition on with airbag disconnected it will register fault code but light will go off when the airbag is connected again. Fault code will remain in controller but light will be out. Fault code will delete itself if it does not repeat for next 30 or 40 ignition cycles.
