I like the new C-Class, which is not on sale yet, and I like the SL 500 and CLS, but I'm not particularly a Merc lover. I do like the 7-Series, and the little 1-Series is growing on me (in white with back wheels, very cool). The new 3-Series can go hang, though. Hideous car. Audis all look the same. But I do like the R8 – wow, what a design… Well I wouldn’t say I’m a Mercedes man!

Sugar's Amstrad business has not been the greatest long-term success;he made much of his money in property, I believe. Branson is a walking success, but the myth built around him is a little much. I'd like to think I can pay the mortgage and treat myself to the stonking new C-Class next year! Thanks Jose and spyder - to have so many friends is humbling.

Great idea to be able to work a little more from home while your kids are young. The secure jobs will always be there if you need them, so don't worry about leaving all that behind. If being your own boss has its appeal for you, its well worth a crack. Good luck. well, tyger, sounds like you’ll be taking on some exciting new challenges.
