    Well done mate. Don't be afraid to create leads. It's the backbone of many strong businesses. Just make sure you're polite and not pushing, and certainly not misleading (and all the other annoying things I'm sure you aware of from when they call you).

    Dave, you are worried over nothing mate, you took a hit with that firm going down and it knocked you back a bit. You are a grafter and grafters find work.

    Fits and starts mate..I was pulling my hair out at the same point last year and this year I'm banged out sideways...no rhyme or reason to it fella!..but it never hurts to stir the bucket a bit..
    I saw a really really sad looking guy in a tow truck this morning..I thought 'He's heading for a breakdown'

    You've just had a shock to the system Dave, like Dom says. You are one of the 'big hitters', on the forum so your work ethic will see you through.
