Me again,sorry I didn't respond earlier to your news BB but as you will have seen other things on my mind.

Well done you,that's a fair achievement!!! And especially that you are working on a book, maybe once you have that one under your belt (suitably tightened, braces are also good, and so is a piece of string - or even a dog lead) you might start on the one about your family.

I still haven't found anything permanent but at the moment we are getting by, we both had very nice refunds from the tax man, and I have some ad hoc work for an old gentleman whose grandfather started up a motor business over a hundred years ago and the business is still going strong. I am attending various meetins that are being held and taking the minutes and typing them as his memory isn't what it was and he wants things in writing so that he knows what was or wasn't agreed, and he is wanting to work on the archiving of the family history and set up a little museum - some of it is fascinating - so I'm quite happy doing his work and it's quite interesting, be nice if there was a bit more of it but he hasn't been well, and is getting anxious that he isn't going to be able to finish it whilst he is still capable as he is in his late 80s. Lovely person though, and a real gentleman.

Anyway, again, well done you!!!!!

Gilly
