Hi,

Yes the biggest problem that I have found is being really careful to  
not over extend yourself. I could take on more work but doing a  
blanket search for work I know will net me more than I could handle.

But with the recession I have noticed a down turn in work, and I just  
have to stop myself from panicking.

Gordon.
