I’ve been away from the project for a couple of weeks now, trying to get other projects that aren’t purely self-interested, up-and-running. The Three Fivers idea hasn’t progressed because of that, other than researching, which is essential - but ultimately no substitute for making money. Hard work works, as they say, and I’ve done none.
