I usually find that in order to deal with someone else's enquiry, my research attention gets diverted to another branch of my tree, and the struggle is to get back to my own priorities. I have, on occasion, become so engrossed at looking at a new problem, that I have forgotten why I ordered a certificate in the first place, when it finally arrives all creased up and looking like the dog's dinner. |

I no longer order certificates in batches....That way there is no 'feast' followed by a loooong famine'! I am in the enviable position of being able to order 7 this week (thanks to a birthday pressie) but I am going to spread them out, one every three days to a week. It will mean I have some time to research the info fully before being sidetracked by another one :) This only works of course if you don't need two together to prove or disprove something :( Chris |
