        The baby entertained everyone with his unusual crawl. he shuffles on his bottom - and can do say at amzing speed. One sniff of a set of stairs and he is off like a rocket.

          Is he affected by the current downturn at all?
          Where are we going? And what’s with this hand basket?

            Alas he can only get up stairs - well he can get down by falling.......

              We need to invest in two more stair gates (not to be confused with Stargates - they'd be a lot cooler) now we have an extra set of stairs into the loft.

                BOOMED! We are building a £3m supermarket + flats by Wimbledon Chase - I helped with financing. All he has to do is build them. The owner will let out the supermarket/flats - then sell in 10/20 years when upturn comes......

                He has about 5 other projects on the go too - each worth £500k - 1.5m. And his cost of labour has gone down. he just loves it.

                  They are a nuisance - but better than an accident.....

                      Sounds like he's not affected at all then. I think a lot of smaller outfits are feeling the pinch at the moment though.
