Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

Originally posted by DimPrawn View PostThe worse-than-expected data suggested that the weaker sterling was not enough to boost demand for UK exports.
Is it as black and white as that? The biggest exchange rate movement was in Nov / Dec - probably well after contracts were signed for supply abroad and when stocks were purchased. I think it will only be for contract and goods supplied after this time to reach the shops or customers before it will have any impact on exports?
There is another effect which has been noticed much quicker though - apparently the shops in London have been buzzing with foreigners coming over to shop at bargain prices!This default font is sooooooooooooo boring and so are short usernamesComment
