    I am not digging up your garden for anything less than my normal hourly rate (£650 per hour + VAT). I cannot verify my normal hourly rate with actual evidence, but it is my normal hourly rate.
    After tenders are opened, laughed at and binned.... some people are never contacted again.

    when i was in practice, my firm charged me out at a headline of £200/hour, but after discounts and write offs, the client was probably only paying £80-120 depending on the particular job.

    i was paid about £20...
    You beat me then.... I was charged out at £100/hour in 1999 and I was getting £14.

    :(

    Your god-daughter is the one on the swing. She will not want presents just for you to point things out to her at the beach.
