    It is stress related, I am convinced it is. That proejct is always there in the background.

    Can you ask boss for time away from your duties so you can focus on the task? What is wrong with them why dont they stop dumping more work on you. I want to duff someone up. I am so cross.

    My family went though a few years when, whenever one of us went for tests on some illness or injury, nothing showed up - nothing at all - we would feel fine on the day of the x-ray or other tests, then, as soon as results were back showing nothing wrong, the symptoms would start again, worse than ever. Made us all feel like we were telling lies to the doctors

    So I know exactly what you mean George about wanting the tests to show up some problem as that way they can treat whatever it is and get it sorted for you, so you can get on with your life

    Girlies (and Porge) he has always worked. Remember on Mr Blind's site - you were working on tasks then they never go. As soon as you finish one they give you another project. You are so helpful and good you do it but at what cost???

    Most people would have said no by now. I am convinced that's what it is. When we meet i am going to give you a hug and then we are going to talk through how much fun you have. I am so sure i am right.

    Did you speak to your parents Porge what did they say? Shall i email this it is a bit personal. oh b@gger it I will delete it. everyone needs to see so they can help.

    The sooner i can get this out of the way, the happier everyone will be. There's still that database project i've told them i'm not doing until this is done and dusted. I was supposed to get a day a week off to work on just that, but we've been too busy. It can get quite hectic, but i usually handle it quite well - it's just the extra jobs they have me doing which are now on the clock whereas before i did bits and pieces when i had time.

    I think i'm on the home stretch on this now though so will not be going totally mad. No idea how long it'll take, but it'll be ready when it's ready!!

    How do you think they would react if you asked for a week of solid work on project uninterrupted?

    Why can't they give you an assistant to help? it sounds frantic
