[QUOTE="nlj, post: 659801, member: 17650"] It all sounds really positive Alb. Keep us posted about the new business. I'm glad you decided to take the leap and work for yourself after all your anxiety about your previous job coming to an end. I've never regretted leaving employment and becoming self-employed. I'll look forward to your updates. I know what you mean about being unable to help financially, even though it would seem to be the normal thing to do for any parent. My troubled son kept asking for money for a new passport (he destroyed his last one because he said it was yet another way of the government controlling him :frown:), but now he wants to travel to stay with some activist groups in Europe. I've consistently refused to pay for a new passport and now, surprise surprise, he is, as I type, working hard in our garden clearing an area of overgrown woodland and brambles that's needed attacking for a while, and earning the money for a new passport. It's a miracle! I'm sure your son will value anything that he pays for himself far more than anything you pay for. Stick at it Alb! You're doing great. :) Lucy x [/QUOTE]
