    Speak for yourself I only do challenging mortgages. We dont really want some thing to physicaly trying as some brokers havent excersied for years.
    I like to give people as many choices as possible to do what I want them to. (Milton H Erickson I think)

    I have certainly mis -judged some advisers and overall they are a principled bunch,it would be impossible for that to apply to all and I must be more tolerant of the few that do not measure up.

    I have enjoyed the debate and lessons have been learned and friends made.

    In respect for Payless and Homer-j we have a truce.

    I have also enjoyed the humour and support of others and they have contributed to my decision.

    Welcome!!!

    I served a mortgage broker once and he was very proud of what he did - "I have a 1million pound signature". Job satisfaction goes a long way, no matter what profession you're in :)

    Sorry been quiet - just been watching my team beat WBA on the tv...

    Its very difficult to organise something for everyone to take part in. Why don't we try and do something we can all remotely take part in?
