Well I'm thinking of selling up exactly for this reason. My house is a tip, I have projects that I could work on that I'd be better off with the long run (i.e. they'd look better on my CV) and I'm getting no younger and should exercise more regularly than playing cricket every few weeks, plus I've just got an allotment, and it requires a lot of work!!!

Oh, and I asked out a girl I've liked for years on Saturday, and she said 'yes'! WOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!
I like Amigas

At least I might then get some time to myself.

Why not get rid of job or maybe switch to part time work? My friend is quitting his job in November and moves to Thailand for two or three months to spend his unemployment money. Nice, eh?

Best advice I can give you is a simple time management thing.

Switch the television OFF!!!!!

..I work on a sell desk of an investment fund for 3 afternoons  per week and get some money.. I also study private university and have enough money so I donĀ“t need to work more.. but guess what - do I have time for miggy? My tower system sits on the table at home (I live in the city during week) and the only time I can use it is weekend.. BUT when I got home for a weekend, my aunt always finds some work for me around our big house or her office.. so miggy goes aside.. I hope she will travel somwhere soon for a holiday.. :-P

..btw I am getting this LCD to get PAL.. http://www.alfacomp.cz/php/zbozi.php?akc=2&mnu=2&zob=2&pol=110&zbo=30818

Unless you win the lottery (And even then it had better be a big one) then it's best to just plan to have life bowl you over and really enjoy the free moments when you can.

I have Amiga projects, Home maintenance and remodel projects, Music projects, other computer projects and 7 kids to play with in my "Spare" time when I'm not cleaning up after them and repairing the damage they do day to day.
