Interesting isn't it, that we as individuals are all counselled to 'keep something aside for a rainy day'. Currently it is suggested that it should be around three to six months' worth of your regular expenses. Yes I know many are unable to meet that target. Why is it not the same for business ?

5.15 am She's snoring like the engine on the Reedham Ferry and I've got back ache, so I get up. 8am Mrs P rolls out of bed. 9.45am Conversation: Her "You could've done the ironing." Me "No. That's your job." Her "There are no blue/pink jobs, just jobs." 10.10am There's an angry wasp in the kitchen. "Poppy! Theres a wasp in the kitchen. Get it !" "That's no longer a blue job. Just a job. You get it". The upshot of this is, we have gone back to blue/pink jobs.
