That could be a big project. Do you have any sort of experience doing that sort of thing, or is it a cheque book build?

If it actuallty ever ends up looking like that example, I will be very impressed indeed.
It is fortunate that your other boss pays you a high enough rate to be able to spend on toys I reckon, and I think you should be forever indebted to him :wink: :mrgreen:
