    365 days, 24/7 this year and worked in 8 countries.
    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                  238 this year, 2nd best year revenue wise.
                  Most ever worked - 272 - bit mad but thought I was making hay etc. I find you are fine if you have 1 day off a week, otherwise it is a train smash waiting to happen !
                  Not interested in doing that anymore, a permie type 225 or less would suit fine. Need to enjoy the time 'resting' which is easier said than done.

                    I'm bored.
                    Yes, your project for taking over the world is dragging its feet a bit, eh zeity?

                      So are we making the distinction between working and invoicing here?
