Business Blueprints. I've done a couple of restaurant jobs for them.

Thanks for that - managed to get in touch with the guy in England and he's contacting the manager over here :beer:

There is no major difference in my own humble opinion. However, some MS companies prefer the shopper to use advisor throughout....:)

I think the difference is you were either raised on the queens english (er), or american english (or). Damn people changing the spellings and pronounciation of all our words!

According to the Cambridge Guide to English Usage (Pam Peters, 2004):

Both these spellings are in current use, though adviser is the dominant spelling in both the US and the UK. The ratio in American data from CCAE is 20:1 and in British data from the BNC it's 6:1. Curiously, advisor is sometimes said to be "the American spelling." �Ķwhatever its past, advisor is registered alongside adviser in major British, American, Canadian and Australian dictionaries.:)
