After 8, years I found myself in the position where it seemed that those who counted didn't share my vision. For them it was just another revenue point and as a reult controls were coming in that took out some of the joy. Where I did go wrong was to go for the first offer that seemed the most flattering!
It was still a fantastic 8 years as I always did exactly what I wanted to, but it is never quite the same as when you do it for yourself, as I have now discovered.

Henry, you hint in your reply that your time at "hush" was not the best of your career. Would that be a correct assumption, and if so would you care to elaborate? (alternatively, you may feel free to tell me to mind my own business).
