It sure is den and it's all thanks to MarkC1984 giving advice on moans and pet hates as I did not know that I could complain about unpaid deficient postage. The advice given on this forum is truly superb. So a BIG THANK YOU MarkC1984 :)

No worries, sometimes it pays to complain. A bus on Saturday didn't come into where it is supposed to start the route, I got in touch with Arriva through Twitter and they told me they have CCTV on buses now and if I gave them details they would look into it and speak to the driver concerned.

Another enquiry from a new client, actually my old boss from years back, he's now a consultant with another company but this job is my speciality so he's put it my way. :) (Switched mode power supplies)

Couple of days of consultancy: Design study of an existing product, mainly a cost saving exercise, and write a report. Possible ongoing redesign work.

This summer's getting really busy. Makes a change from last autumn that was completely dead. Guess this is the recovery. :)

Thank you. Fortunately it's non-urgent so we've scheduled the job into August when I'm a bit less rushed. We don't take holidy when the schools are out anyway.

Well, this week cannot end quick enough for me. Terrible hay fever, then a migraine and now spent 2 hours in A&E because my left eye was very blurred. Doctor checked and nothing wrong with retina thank Christ. Now to get some sleep, didn't sleep much last night at all worrying about it.

I recommend the rollercoasters in New York New York hotel and on top of the Stratosphere hotel just to say you've done them. Also the helicopter tour over the strip at night time.

If you like cars, then the museum under the Imperial Palace is quite good. Fremont Street at night, The Luxor is neat too, so are all the others basically. There's so much to do and see so I'm sure you'll enjoy whatever you do.

During the day it's all a bit surreal, but at night it is an amazing place.

If you're not venturing away from Vegas then I'd highly recommend the Vegas to Grand Canyon helicopter tour, once in a lifetime trip.

Now hoping it won't go pear shaped as it is the perfect house for what we can afford.

Good luck
