Gumtree - he rang me yesterday going interviewing today, he is an asian chap but he sounds good, he is working in sales for sky and done years of telesales, so see how it goes today...i used to work with a few asian chaps in the gas and electric game and they could sell sand to arabs :) You pay your tele sales by appointment dont you??

You have a hand held ronnie?? which one you use??

I'm still running Geo aswell as Wcp and I will say that they are both very good but 1 thing that lets Wcp down is the lack of a debt list on the handheld
