Kip sorry to hear you didn't get that job.
The question you mentioned about if anything happens to you is there anyone else to pick it up. I lost out on a £3000 project for that very same reason last month.

All I can say is better luck next time, maybe teach your misses the basics and use her as the backup so next time they ask you can just say Yes.

Ah well Kip, like you say all good experience so you'll get it next time.

You got a lot further than I did (was asked to quote for some local council work ~6 months ago...failed at the first hurdle!)

Naaa, I didn't get the same detailed criteria you got before applying. I imagine I failed on quite a few fronts! Probably too cheap, and didn't really have any relevant experience.
