Trena, did you ever get the images sorted? If not let me know when you get 5

No Kip,
I havent touched it since we spoke yet, keep meaning to make time to call you but the world and his dog seem to be trying our patience at the minute.
I will be in touch as soon as i have a clear head....... may take some time to get that tho

ahhh 14 hour days

Does make me smile when my corporate world chums moan (still) about their jobs, and waffle on about must be nice to run a business, come and go when you please, work what hours you like...

how little they know eh?

Glad things are picking up for you Mike, looks like 2010's going to be your year!

Hope so Steve, I really do. I suppose the reason I found it amusing, I thought my days of long hours were actually over. Back in 1992/3 when I won businessman of the year (DTI-IiP, cant remember if I mentioned that so thought I'd say it again) The support services company that I built from scratch became hugely demanding at times.

With 170 odd employees there were frequent times when we would work all day from 6am, then travel 150 miles to work a night job and carry on the following day. I think 40 odd hours was the longest stint without ANY sleep. What peeved me was I always expected to sleep well that first noght...Did I muggery, toss-turn-toss-turn.

Still, I did manage a 13 hour day today. And to you peeps that mentioned part/time, ho bl00dy ho

How I see it, we work these hours to get more than the rest of the rat race get, why worry about your wages covering the bills, earn more!

We get to decide on our incomes, the more we do the more we get, though it may not always seem like it, its all about the end result!

i second what you have said, But i think we all do it as well because we all have a passion and a drive in our chosen business or proffesion.
