Budget Wars - A New Hope (with apologies to George Lucas)

Bobarella

Hey All

Have spent the day in sort it mode. Did a viewing this morning, really nice older guy. Reminded me a lot of Larry Lamb. Fingers crossed for future bookings.

I have also

* Contacted and discussed possibilities to work together with one old contact

* Messaged another but haven't heard back yet

* Suggested a JV with a former client for a special event

* Posted on all the social medias

* Discussed another JV with someone else

* Messaged another contact

* Answered two new enquiries that came in today. One annoyingly was sent via a third party platform and it didn't turn up for two days, so doubt that's still live in any case.

* An invoice had been settled and was in my account

* Am just arranging a view for tonight as well.

So I'm trying.

Sorry to hear the news Bob - but looks as though you're already onto looking for new opportunities. It will sort itself out I'm sure. Do not let it spoil your holiday - you really deserve to enjoy that.

But. Whilst I feel pretty worried. I also feel that bad things can often lead to good. There might be the best opportunity ever just around the corner and if this didn't happen then it I couldn't fit that in. Or something.

Right coffee. Then we get on with life.

Your positivity is inspiring. I'm sure a really good opportunity is waiting for you around the corner.

Oyster info:

Daily cap on oyster or debit card = £4.50
Weekly cap on debit card = £21.40 (or £21.60, sorry, not sure)
You can buy a weekly bus pass with your oyster and it is also capped at £21.40 (or 21.60).

Any use? Now that ds has stopped the dance class(es), it may be of no mse use, but thought it worth a mention.

It is bad. But hopefully fixable. The fact that April is D day for the new business rates kicking in, whatever that will bring, plus losing around £400 in one fell swoop is somewhat scary. I'm with you, it will sort itself out.

Thanks Chanie. I'm glad of your support.

I am also a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. That this will open up new possibilities for you. I have absolute faith in it in fact.

As we say here in Yorkshire, you'll be reet.
