Sorry you sounded fed up , I gave you a link to a friend who was selling up a bit of work ! How was that ?      If you wanted to get some work I would have come along and helped you

how about trying doorknockers or roundbuilders to build you up a round. I think they are still charging 2 times the monthly value.
Do a search on this site for posts about them that will have contact details.

cheers mark, had emails from both. they are based down south and are expensive to come up north. besides have done the canvassing bit myself. have picked a few up but will take time.

No worries.
Are you searching in town only? I started off rural and working town but i found the best way was canvassing villages, putting adverts in village shops but the best way was (and still is) is to put adverts in parish magazines. The type of people who buy these church mags are the ones who network like demons and are generally very community oriented.
I pay a tenner a year for my advert. The best money i've ever spent.
