    So your margin remains in the UK. Marvellous news. It all adds to your profit and therefore leads to more tax being paid, all for the greater good...

    Interesting. What field / area (if it's not confidential) ? A friend's wifes brother is all foreign & stuff, but also an IT wizz, I think he gets like 500 quid a month, max. I'd like to put some work his way. Remote network stuff, something like that. Haven't given it a lot of thought yet.....
