I do hope it was because of the school hols.

We haven't even recieved many requests for quotes. A bit worrying as the lead time between quotes and fitting is about 2 months.

Very IMHO. Summer for us was flatter than a flat thing. There has been a little more activity from the telephone this week now that everyone is getting their heads around being back from hols, but I suspect that confidence is fragile and will continue to be so for a while.

Last month & a half have been the busiest mosts in my company's (short) history.

Long may it continue (although other half may not agree).

:calculatormodeon: at this rate GT2 may be not be as long a wait as I originally thought :calculatormodeoff:

Every month is like that for me.

Business is defo in the UP in IT at present, over the last 5-6 mths mostly.

August was a pap month in terms of revenue collection, but as for sales, have 2 of the largest deals ever on the cards at present, along with some nice sized upgrades.

I dont want to jinx it, but with Google IPO'ing, then rising substantially (ok, so its slipped back a tad now!) it all seems slightly... de ja vu
