I have just finished banking yet another bumper weeks takings; just enjoyed a long champagne boozy lunch; booked a three week holiday in the Maldives; have a clean, tidy house, all clothes fully washed ironed away in each bedroom; a fridge full of delicious food! HA HA HA. In reality none of the above it true, I am totally tired after being up since 5.30am watching Thomas the **** Tank Engine with my son, do do do dooo do do dooooo! But am loving it all the same, glad you all are!

I was up till the early hours last night doing some last minute bug-checks. I've spent this morning drinking tea and coffee and transfering over several hundred files between PAINFULLY slow FTP servers (OK, they're good servers, its just that FTP isn't).
On the plus side, that bit is out of the way, and I can concentrate on going through a few hundred account records and doing some more programming this afternoon.
Welcome to the forums ;) If you need someone to rant on for hours about how spaces shouldn't be used to indent code chunks, I'm your man!
Best of luck with your business, I'm sure you'll get that holiday in the Maldives soon (not my sort of thing - they probably don't have Broadband at the hotels yet).

Hey CaroCaro that's plagiarism :)
Gone are the days of being up at 5 am. It's moved onto being up at midnight waiting to put my taxi driver hat on and pick them up from some teenage hellhole or other.

I used to work 15 hour days but it nearly killed me.
So I now only work 14 1/2 hr days :D
Ahh.. One day... (goes off into a dream world which looks remarkably like Antigua)
Hello CaroCaro,
I wonder when the Fat Controller will be renamed the Larger Than Average Controller by the PC Brigade!
Welcome :)

I hate to say he already has, I have a USA version and he is call Sir Topham Hat, which is his real life name and I know the names of all the trains and can narrate some of the episodes by heart!

Caro,
With six children, I am only too aware of the narrative of most Thomas episodes. Having lived in the US for many years, I am familiar with Sir Topham Hatt (it was that name or the 'Expansively Challenged Controller').
Still, Thomas the Tank Engine is important. Yes, business is important too, but our children grow up only once. When I established my own company, my business partner and I agreed to a set of core values. One of them is to give priority to our families. Putting this principle into practice has already cost us a little financially (for example, we took our families with us while we attended a trade show), but we'll never violate that principle.
Good luck!

You must live fairly locally to me then.
I, too, am becoming expert on the Thomas stories - we have limited them to bedtime otherwise we would have them all day!
At least the versions we have are not PC - the refer to the Fat Controller!

Hey CaroCaro
Love your tshirts, I used to just borrow my husbands when I was pregnant, much to his dismay actually because I stretched them with my big tum :)

Hello CaroCaro
Have you got together with Nicky Haze above, as well as RomperStomper to discuss networking yet?
As you each offer complimentary products, some cross-marketing across your websites may work well.
