although it can be really tough running your own business, there are also, of course, some distinct advantages. One of them is that you can work at your own pace and around the other things in your life. Today I am taking time out to meet Jane Lindsey from Snapdragon for lunch in Perth. Jane produces some of the prettiest and most original flowers I have come across and we can sit and chat about the trials and tribulations of small businesses. We met doing the Christmas fair at Hopetoun House near Edinburgh in November and found we had lots to talk (and whinge!) about. We are also both partners on Not On The High Street (http://www.notonthehighstreet.com/) and regularly show at Country Living Fairs, so I am sure there will be lots to talk about.
In the meantime, we are waiting for the gales from the South to arrive in Scotland this evening, so my hatches are being battened!

Hi caroline, glad to see you back. Just read Jane's post about your lunch so popped over to see if you were here. Hope it was a good session with lots of new ideas xx
Hi Pipany - Yes, we had a really lovely lunch. It is great to put your head out of the door once in a while to knock ideas about. We all get too close to what we're doing and sometimes you can't see the wood for the trees.
Thanks for dropping by!
Caroline
