    you are normally spot on as well - all these blooming schemes do get confusing.

    You'd have been better starting your own thread rather than piggy backing off someone elses.

    Grants are not around at all. To be honest if you don't have any money then you're wasting your own time. You would need to be able to show a concrete business plan showing your anticipated turnover and net profit for the next 3 years (minimum)
