Hi Memory Girl
I love your thread. I havent completely caught up yet - I have just been skimming this morning as I have no internet connection at home.
I love your pioneering spirit. I can just see you out in the wild west making your mark.
I was wondering about yesterday muttering "God helps those who help themselves" whilst making my hallway a welcoming place for all comers. Halfway there and it looks fab! Amazing what a bit of B and Qs regency white does to my porch!!
Anyway you are a constant source of inspiration to me and I would love to buy one of your books. My son flunked his AS's. I am going to try and pm you - never done it before so here goes.

Did you get my pm, mg0

MG,
I have come up with a rather good idea for your book. How about you approach your local university and see if they run any professional qualifications like for Law, Accounting, Psychology etc? Because if they do, the students who are working and studying at the same time will most likely rip your arm off to buy one of your books. I speak as someone who did an accounting qualification while working full time. It was really hard, and I would have LOVED to have a book that could have helped me out. If the university doesn't go for it, approach local Law firms and accounting firms, because they might get it for their new trainees.
Hope that helps, anyway!!"A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort"Herm Albright 1876-19440 -

thats a genius idea crickett1234 - not far from dundee and from edinburgh so time spent tailoring a proposal would be time well spent.

Go for the student version then - once you've got that sorted the rest should fall into place.
