nikki ive had a lot of babies in with chickepox so keep an eye out for spots my son still calls them chicken pops lol.
i'm going from polmont to grangemouth but my mate lives in bathgate in the new houses at tescos so i might be able to kill two birds with one stone and go see her and get eyebrows with you .
if i can get her to come to you ,you would make your 10,000 just on waxing her hope she never reads this might delete it that was cruel

Mabel - Woohoo!!! I haven't lost my touch then was feeling a bit crap about it not being used now :j:j:j:j

Jo - Kids imaginations are amazing!! Hope you are feeling better today Jo. If not have you managed to get a drs appointment?

MummyP - did you manage to do that list? would still like a copy. Love the dancing....have been dancing with my DD this morning too!!

Nikki - HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!! Hope you have a fantastic day!!

Cagne - hope your hump day is going well!!

Hi Mambury!!

Hi Dilli!

Saucy - if you are reading I hope you are feeling a bit better

Amber -(if you get chance to pop on!) hope you are enjoying the sunshine and catching up with your family!!

NLID - if you need/want any more help from just let me know, will willingly help with any PR for your SEO website. I echo what everyone else has said - just be yourself, people buy people, don't try and be a salesman - you aren't but you are an expert in your field and that is much more valuable. If you really are worrying about 'closing a deal' try and get a couple of closing questions in your head - I like something like, "I'm really excited about doing this, there is so much potential, so when do you want me to start?" I like this because really it is quite a natural statement, and if you mean it then your enthusiasm is infectious and they also become excited about what you are doing and the potential......

Sorry been awol for a couple of days, trying to get my head clear....realising what I need to do/achieve and trying to start working out how to get there. Really need to start focusing on the PR work and stop playing at it, I am starting to get the hunger for earning (being able to take my children on holiday, clear the mortgage, save, and think about pensions) - now just need to find the confidence (and time!) to sell myself! (Yes NLID I know it is easier said than done).

First steps do the work I have promised Mabel and Dilli (NLID you too if you want me!) and a couple of people off line and do some research to brush up my skills/find out my competitors/pricing, thats the easy bit! the main job is to build my confidence........

Oh and update my blog!!

Nixi - list is a work in progress, have 3 boxes listed, then I got distracted! oops! Remind me when I get back to continue! Hope you have organised your head now. Good luck with it. Not something I know a lot about. How is your writing going?

Funnily enough, was just thinking about Amber, hope she is having a nice relaxing break from life!

You gotta boogie when you clean, makes it seem less tedious! (No ABBA though, gets on my nerves!) Motown all the way, go get up and go songs! I sound old now don't I!

Ho hum, kitchen here we come!

Oh, looking for a stroller to take with us so I don't have to do the underground with a double buggy and they have a sale on at Argos, £34.99 down to £13.99, but some cow has bought them all round here and whacked them on
EBay for £20 a pop if anyone needs one, would get to argos quick. Only prob is OH is refusing to push a pink one, he says its a man thing, so need a non-pink stroller for DD! He does make me laugh sometimes!

Getting there Nixi. felt lousy last night. but not bad this morning. think its just a case of seeing it through now.
Sounds great about the PR stuff.
was wondering about NLID (and now possibly you too)
we have some very successful local businesses where people have joined forces wioth different skills to offer a complete package.
would probably work best with people you can get together with geographically but may be worth a thought.
eg for Nixi maybe a collaboration with a graphic designer/ website builder and you providing good copy?
NLID would their be similar self employed people with skills that would complement yours where you could work collaboratively .
The ones near us have made a lot of their personalities and backgrounds and working ethos. a bit like the innocent smoothie branding. etc. It gives off a lot of confidence cos you can see how they've worked on their own site and PR and how good it looks.
could be very flexible as in meet clients together and have meetings together about projects but then do your actual part of the work at home?
Just thoughts

I know what I forgot! Toots I have found a few books for you while sorting out for Mabel and who was making the tablets? Have found a small book called "Favourite sweets and Toffee recipes" it has loads of tablet recipes in it, its not big and will go under a letter stamp if anyone wants it?? Even has a recipe for sherbet and humbugs!

This is the company I was particularly thinking of. they have grown but there were only a few of them initially. and don't think they had premisies to start with.
