We talked about this evening, as we also both want to do the fringe, but with going to Ireland in August it would be just too risky to have the business closed for longer. When we went to Australia for 3 weeks it took about 6 months for sales to recover back to where they were before. All the joys of the internet I'm afraid, close your website for a while and you soon get lost!

not poo at all, "We made our bed....... " or "Freedom comes at a cost......" take your pick, but at the end of the day Mrs SC and I chose a better quality of life and work/life balance than we had before and that will inevitably have down sides

CnD, We have a "thumbs up" from Mrs SC for Celtic Connections, maybe 4 days, obviously booking fights and hotel is all pretty straightforward, but what is the best way of tracking "what's on" and acquiring tickets? Is there one site that we should keep an eye on or do the individual venues all do it separately? Yeah we know your work on a hunch with your suggestion
