yeah don't care, not that much time unsurprisingly, was hoping that someone skilled would be able to rattle one off in like seconds.

to do today,
teach myself how to cvonvert a mhtml to an html, use our overly complicated FTP server, sort out a client list, send out several packs through royal mail, rework our CRM system, draw up a list of our Peer reviewers, write 3 prototype newsletters in html code for emails, attached and RSS feed to our website.
