I'm still in the States, will be for the rest of September. I have a thing stuck in my passport that allows me to come and go- holding a few Patents and being majority owner of an increasingly large company seems to make Immigration Authorities less likely to view one as a bludging foreigner ;-) But I need to be careful, I can't afford to be classed as a resident or I'll end up paying tax twice.

I must say I've enjoyed my time in Atlanta, Michigan and Indiana. Outside USA you'd be surprised how many people think the US is like "Lethal Weapon 4" with you guys all dodging bullets and having your kids abducted every 5 minutes. Actually the parts I've been are safe, clean and very nice. In Indiana the company has acquired a condo in quite a nice place called "Lions Gate" but it's a bit cramped with us and kids so we will be releasing it at the end of the month.

I expect to spend a lot of time in the US in the next year or two, we're just finishing a (VFP) server app that has lots of interested US customers.

Regards
