Aw, shucks, thank you both
Busy day again. Mucked out, walked dog, tried saddle on pony (still fits!), took recycling bin up the drive, two quick bits of work for Mr RPC, one 43-minute summary and quotes for the agency, packed up the remaining eBay orders, put through three loads of laundry, let BT engineer in to have a look at my crackling phone line, had lunch, took eBay orders to post office, 37-minute interview for the spreadsheet job, downloaded another two interviews for spreadsheet job, signed for husband's latest tool delivery (breaking bar), typed first 15 minutes of 82-minute mega-interesting file for NEL, let BT engineer in again to test his fix at the exchange had worked, mucked out, fed horses, walked dog, changed bed linen, ironed the three loads of laundry, put it away, had a shower, talked to my mother, calmed down swearing Mr Minx whilst retrieving pony from the wrong side of the electric fence where he was happily sploshing about in Mr Minx's newly-scraped out drainage ditch, rearranged electric fence to stop him getting back in there, collapsed on sofa with bowl of Mr Minx's amazing homemade chilli

Mr RPC is moving house today, so I have a couple of quiet-ish days - though 'quiet-ish' means a 53-minute file for the agency, more of NEL's file and catching up on the spreadsheet job (three and a half interviews outstanding with another two being sent today). It's also Mr Minx's birthday, so no working this evening!
After a couple of good days of eBay sales, I have the bit firmly between my teeth on the business debt. Getting very, very close to having rid of it for good now

Just doing the invoicing for all the monthly typing clients and if I count the £177-worth of spreadsheet job that's been typed in June but won't be invoiced for until the end of the project, then my June typing income is £1,309.50, i.e. over the £1,200 a month I was paying myself from the beads
