Hiya

I'm Sarah and have joined to make friends and contribute where I can. I'm 22, live with a large family on the south coast, and work from home.

Hello Sarah and welcome aboard !

What kind of work at home ? I'll do anything to get rid of traffic.

I'm Chief Administrator for my family's company, liasing between our Eurpopean franchisees and our Head Office in Zurich, Switzerland.

Working from home has great benefits inasmuch as there is no office, but I work with Sis and senior members of the family and get on really well. Especially having coffee on tap.

If I need to travel it's easily done from our local airport, or by driving down France on the A26. I have a telepass issued by the French civil authorities that saves us considerable expense paying road tolls. Thanks to my brilliant accountant I get several tax breaks including petrol expenses. I privately own a car rather than have a company car, as this saves me from being clouted Company Car Tax (CCT) operated by the UK's whoreson HMR&C.

I enjoy the benefit of high speed cable broadband which lines into my business computer. For European travel I use BGAN, Broadband Global Area Network using one of their satellite terminals, via Inmarsat. Their data transfer is excellent. I recommend you see BGAN's video.

Thanks for your welcome, and I loook forward to enjoying your (otherwise) quiet forum.

I'll be back in a week or so's time, then. Or maybe not at all. Seems everyone has fallen asleep here, and no-one's making any effort.

It's a shame. This forum could resurrect itself to become great again.

You are lucky to work with your family. My sister has her own business and one of her son's has his own. Unfortunately we do not have the same interests, so we cannot work together.

I'm not familiar with BGAN. We have two big *dogs* in Canada who have the monopol for internet connections and tehy are not ready to let others to develop.
