There is always a solution, even to the knottiest of problems, you just have to find it!

Waitressing to pay my way through university at a Beefeater restaurant.

What is the book you recommend to everyone?

I'm a sucker after a fraught day for a mindlessly easy novel - currently reading the new Jilly Cooper!

I suspect that with the looming UK election we will see some last minute planning as the expectation of a Labour government and changes to the non-dom regime march ever closer.
