What the weather like there, it's a bit misty here. I'm thinking about going out in the Griff if it gets a bit sunnier.

Aye, that's what it's about - especially in your game because you offer a service, rather than a product. As such, I would imagine that your profit is turnover driven, because your costs will be fairly consistent, regardless of how busy you. So, above a certain turnover your Gross Profit will go straight on the bottom line. Ie, if you increase turnover, by, say, 30% you double the profit. I would imagine it's something like that.

It's a bit overcast, but warm and dry. It's supposed to be sunny later!

What roads have you been on and which pub do you find yourself in?

Surrey Rolling Road got a good write up in this month's Classic American when visited by a load of Viper/Corvette peeps.

But you've got to get a kettle and some cups they said ...

You know me - Fridays and pubs. By the way, thanks for lunch last week. Sorry if I talked too much, I tend to be too enthusiastic when with other business owners.

Anyway, today I went on the A31 to Winchester, then stopped at a pub along the A272. Then back via Alton on the A339. I'm currently in another pub -orange juice- enjoying the countryside.

I was very happy listening. I know when to do that sometimes. It was all very interesting and I have been giving it a lot of thought.

I have a couple of additional questions I will email you soon if you don't mind.

Hope you enjoyed your drive. A272 is great but sometimes very busy. There are plently of smaller roads of it that are quiet and very challenging.
