Is Gordon Brown really a Christain. I wouldnt have thought so.

30mpg is good for a big van. My transit 2001 model only gets 20.

Dave - nice pics, nice sky, nice gardens. Why on earth did you leave??

Gordon Brown is a Protestant, which is an evolved Christian can't see how that would get in the way of his political thinking.

When I watch modern American TV I'm greatly impessed by their willingness to shout loudly about their Christian beliefs and national pride, sorely missing from this country whchis rapidly sinking.

And we are a Protestant nation down here south of the border. Not sure if you have heard yet

He is the son of the a Presbyterian Minster and famously said that his father gave him a morale compass. I think he has lost it and instead he has Captain Jack Sparrow's compass from Pirates of the Carribean.

Both my Grandfathers were Presbyterian Minsters and I have the morales of dog if that anything to go by.

For me it goes dead when there is a school holiday or bank holiday on the horizon. I could dish out 5k of leaflets and still not get a call. Seem to be old clients and referrals keeping me ticking over.

I have a new 'campaign' planned for next week using a6 cards with upmarket look, yet hopefully still has all the right marketing. Talking to Rob Stubbs at CCDO, he was raving about them from DP Print so I thought I'd give them a go.

Had my first flood call out yesterday to old lady think I did what I could, went back today to pick up air mover and was dry although the hall carpet had come off grippers.

Must be expensive fielding calls from where you are Neil

My next door neighbour holds my phone and takes messages and emails me the details so that i can call them.

Have stopped diverting the phone direct to my mobile, the last time I went away for 10 days it cost about £150.00.
