Not going to work. I might be in my office eating my company owned apple and then have to go out to the kitchen to work on my brolly contract. By the time I get back it will be all brown and horrible.

And does the boss of the company who owns the equipment care that you are doing other work on it?
If you are sat on a client site doing work for another company may be a problem - working from home - who cares...
Who gives a flying monkies which kit you are using at what hours. All business stuff comes with an element of personal use so just use the bloody stuff.

Who advised you that this was necessary?

[QUOTE=supersteamer;n4196084]An old client came back with a very attractive offer to continue supporting, on a limited part time basis, something I'd been working on whilst I was previously there full time (but would only accept through a brolly).
Well you've missed a trick. You should have said "provide a PO to my company if you want me to do anything."
And told them to foxtrot oscar if they insisted on a brolly. They either want you or they don't.
And it's amazing how soon client's change their tune when they can't get what they want.
