    Right. can I say to you how impressed I am with it, I find it hard to fault, You have obviously a lot of passion for entertainment and I applaud you, really Applaud you George.

    What sort of presenting did you do?

    With work experience? We made a documentary about The Watershed, which is a sort of arts place in Bristol, and I presented the documentary and conducted interviews with people.

    I think we have run out of time, the last question was to test how you get answers out of anything.

    Been a pleasure George, thankyou.

    My business Flip Through is a virtual library that alllows people to read books through their computer without paying costs and without travelling to a library which are becoming "out of fashion".

    I went on your dummy website, I think that its a brilliant idea.

    Obviously Spotify is big at the moment, and I think you can use that audience with books.

    What do you wish to achieve?

    Ok, personally this has gone from a brilliant idea to a good idea.

    Now, looking at your C.V you are very honest which I like, youve gone from a binman to an Amstrad Executive marketer, please explain to me how you did this transition

    Ok, the idea of that was to show your initiative from getting an answer out of a silly question.

    Thanks for your time Nick
