Has Christmas started?

[The Londoner]

Seems very quiet already, not much coming in via the phones or t'interweb and can't get decisions out of anyone. Is everyone really gearing down for Christmas this early?

[SGirl]

If anything, things are busier here now than they've been all year, and I've been flat out all year too. Maybe translation clients are all spending to meet budget? I don't know. No sign of a downswing here yet, though.

mortgages are flying out my door, i've not historically done much in december but last week was a 9 grand week and this week will be over 11!

..although that might just be because i'm not surfing PH as much as I used to

having said that though, as a company we only wrote 21k between 11 brokers last week so you could say the slowdown is biting...house sales are slow but not as slow as they were last year

:grins: thanks matey - pint on me at the curry night @ tayyabs for you!



Edit: actually, having seen your abilities in that dept @ LM2006 I think a jug or two holding 4 pints each might better do you justice

We are pretty busy at the moment and anticipate being even busier right until the end of the year. I might only be able have only a day or two off over Christmas actually.

This is my third chritmas running my online business, and to be honest last 2 weeks its picked up. It is a little slow this year but picking up now.
