Workshop space is the problem, either too expensive or at least 1 hour each way to travel min.

In 1997 I was going to have to pay £18k a year plus rates on 3500 sq ft, that another reason I gave up the work shop. The worry to pay rent and wages was just too much.

I was on a farm for 5 years and that was £75 week for about 1500sq ft, but ran out of space so took a shed for storage at another £75 week. Traffic was bad at time and it could take me 90 min each way to get to the w/shop

Yep understand all that as i looked into doing similar back in 1991. Even one of the arches on the Underground was from memory £750 per month rent can't remember what the rates were. All frightening stuff, Anyway didn't happen as Kodak pulled the plug on my redundancy that i was going to use to help set it up.

In another life David i'd be in the country somewhere on a small holding, nice Cottage to live in and outbuilding for the business rent free. Thats the way to go imho.

Afraid country side isn't for me, not saying middle of London or city but when we go away to Devon etc and see relatives I cant wait to get back to the orange glow of the town up the M4

That's the dilemma town = expensive,.......... a little bit further out = doable.

I'm not 60

It doesn't wind me up mate, it's all part of the banter and gives me some real good laughs
