    Looking very business-like, Nick.

    Is that loads of completed kits on the shelves I see?

    And plinking targets on the top shelf?

    Stock is desperately low due to being busy with other things, but got 100 Tx kits packed today. Lot's of my toys are moving down with work, not for shooting at though!

    Thanks Jon. After over ten years of being self-employed, today is my last day of freedom.

    We go limited from tomorrow which means I'll once again be an employee working for "da man"!
    Don't worry though, I've already put in a holiday form for later in the week.

    Not to worry, I've ran my own ltd co for many years; the paperwork isn't really much different to self employed - and in fact it does have some advantages...

    I don't think the airgun side of things has been going for ten years, Neil.




    I think Nick was referring to the gigolo arm of his business (where he was quietly developing Bumslide behind the scenes)!

    No, when my toys first came out of the pram I decided I would buy a fishing boat and make my living at sea!

    Sufficed to say I was a liabilty at sea, a definate case of ambition over ability.
