Thanks - that's exactly what I've done and it's rebuilding as we speak. I
did toy with recreating the array (to get sda1 back in place as a
non-spare) but wasn't sure if re-writing the RAID superblock would affect
the resizing that was in progress?

Will do. Having to do a sync twice is a bit painful, but at least I've got
the array back :)
Once again, thanks - the assistance is much appreciated.
