Hello!

Today I’ve got one of those – thankfully rare – days between jobs.

The last film was ‘Gold Fever!’ (TX BBC2, 19.00, 13th June)

Time to catch up – on the showreel, the bills, the project proposals. Yes. Like you, too much to do and the day is shortened with the discovery that my daughter may have glandular fever and needs to go to the GP and then the hospital for a blood test.

The good news is, by following the advice on MoneySavingExpert I managed to save just under GBP1,200.00 on my buildings insurance! What an upside to the downside.

If you’re an editor, or cutter as they say in some places, then “Welcome!” I’d like to know how you go about solving problems – working with newbie directors, dealing with workaholics who think everyday ’til 10pm is cool, companies who try to get more out of you than is fair and, if you’re a freelancer, let’s share some tips on getting work.
