Matt,

Before I got in my present job I worked a 4 day work week., That fifth

day of the week was spent at my Alma Mater High School and setup their

computer lab and would help in the lab once it got going. Now I have

zero time to stuff like that but do handle the Web site for my Church

and absorb the hosting and domain fees.

As others have said I do a lot of work for Family and Friends but not as

much as I used to. When they start asking me that stuff I try to beg off

. When I explain to them although a computer professional I spend 99% of

my time at a command prompt and what they are asking could take the

better part of an evening or weekend day. I do make them sit there with

me when I end up fixing their prob;em so they can see how tedious it can

be at times.

Anyone based in the UK, with some spare time on their hands, may be
interested in:

which is an off-shoot of http://www.wcit.org.uk - originally /The

the City 
of London.
