That's the thing right there, it's alright in bits and bobs but when it's all the time it is a bit much...I started on the premise it would be working from home with the odd trip for workshops here and there and it became 2 weeks away and 1 week home (and that I have had to constantly fight for...). I have a 7yr old son and a girl almost here, I want to be at home (most of the time)
![]() I may well continue the job again after a month or 2 break at home with the new baby helping out for a while and spending quality time with the gang....that's on the premise they still need me after such a break....if not I'll be on the look out for something closer to home rather than having to travel to Preston from Norwich all the time edit: Keith_d has hit the nail on the head with the pros and cons...and 10K isn't much really when you look at what you might be giving up

That is pretty much exactly it... It's great while your young, build up amazing experience and CV material. But if you already used to something and have kids, stick with what you know as its a completely different lifestyle and you have to be 100% committed to it will kill you. Edit: having just re-read one of your replies it says your covering the midlands and south!!! That's not a big deal at all... It's not like your going to be all over the world out of contact with people all the time.

not worth it imo, if you had no kids then i would say go for it, other wise a recipe for disaster, as said the 10k won't make you 10k better off, money is not everything, still your choice, good luck either way, andy.

![]() The Norman Jepson Premier inn is the worst, there is a regular stayer called Jerry there (a scotsman who has been staying there for 5 years) and if you get into rounds with him you're doomed. He loves the rum like I do...... ![]() Being up that neck of the woods with a bike would be good though, the highlands aren't too far away ![]() The wife wouldn't have it though....you know what it's like, they call the shots ultimately
