Stephen Sadie: 6:09am Apr 24, 2006: indeed i did, i am always so grateful for all the help provided here. working under constant duress i sometimes fail to see the obvious and am just as grateful for such help as with really tough terminology
Natalie Wilcock: 6:12am Apr 24, 2006: I know exactly what you mean. When things get hectic and time is running out I am so glad that I can rely on my colleagues at proz to help me out, or even just to get confirmation that the source text is somewhat *lacking* and could do with redoing ;-) -
