New site

Posted by Graeme in Business & Investment,Internet at 7:56 am on Tuesday, 4 July 2006

I have decided that I should blog about investment on a separate site.

Thanks

Posted by Graeme in Internet,Software at 6:20 am on Monday, 18 July 2005

I have mentioned my other sites and the various changes but some thanks and acknowledgements are needed.
