    Get the website out there and start building traffic. Everything else can wait.

    Good luck.
    Thanks. I have taken it on the chin and put it down to experience. Using that experience I am now working on my second project which I've carried out far more research for and have ready made suppliers and I know there's a viable market & profit margin.

    And you are right, everything else can wait. My current gig has 14 more months to go and I plan to use all that time to build & build. However, I'll be gutted if it's not turning over a viable second income in that time.

        Though I thought that was Plan A for most of us. When someone asks me what I do I just tell them I'm an escort with a lower hourly rate and less class.

          Nah, the conversions didn't get royalties, despite the fact that the improvements for the Amiga over the ST amounted to a total rewrite from scratch

          My former employer was a bit too quick to agree to that particular contract with Ubisoft
