This is getting weird isn't it.

I genuinely thought you were saying in your post 21.53 you had bit the bullet and 'gone for it'.

Perhaps this is an omen.

Don't panic, phoenix. I don't think you're on google yet. Good luck, though!

Oh heck POGS ! Don't think it can be me yet! [very worried emoticon] Perhaps someone has pipped me to the post!

Notso oh double heck, think it might be going wrong before anything has started!

Will you be on Twitter? We can all follow and re-tweet to promote your enterprise! Will you have a web site? It's very exciting

Pheonix

Our posts crossed.

Well done you.

Can I be the first to congratulate you and wish you lots of success.

Such fun.

Just typed in Rhymes for Reasons into Google and it threw up contacts. One was concerning writing poems, was that you???

Well, you pop downstairs to do a bit of "light domestic" in the kitchen, and then "pooof" you suddenly find that you are a director of a company called "Rhymes for Reasons" !

I was just sorting out the roast dinner
When" himself" went all strong and so butch!
So it seems that I now have a business
And the Welsh in me needs a good "cwtch"

it's so lovely that he has such faith in me.
But I really don't know that I might
Deliver stuff that people would pay for,
But I'm off now to think, so goodnight!

It is easy enough, if you google you will find info. Perhaps you should see what is available before you get on to companies house and commit yourself? Get web addresses that are miss-spellings and guesswork for your chosen name too. Then you catch the people who only half remember it.

SO what"s it to be ?
Let us know !

Phoenix you may want to also get yourself some web addresses based on what you finally choose. I don't know how you do this but some clever Gransnetter will.

My son, who is an author, always checks what names are available online when he is changing to a new series of books. This sometimes affects what he eventually calls the series. Hope that helps.

Rhymes For Reasons gets my vote as well.

I prefer Rhymes For Reasons phoenix it just sounds nicer [not keen on anything with a 4 in it!]Good luck.

I like Rhymes for Reasons in either form, perhaps the 4 version is a bit more trendy and eye catching, but will not please the pedants!
Where are you hoping to advertise? Could you have a stall at a wedding fair to see if there is demand for verse or even funny speeches written to order. You would be fantastic!

Rhymes for Reasons is classier, but how does it read when you set up a website? www.Rhymesforreasons? RhymesForReasons? Rhymes4reasons? The last one reads better then I think.

Good luck either way. Go for it!

Rhymes for reasons sounds good to me, too. (But how about Bespoke Verse, hand-written to fit your special occasion ?)

Rhymes for All Reasons? A Rhyme for All Reasons? Dotty Ditties?

Thanks Gaga I must say that is my personal preference, but would appreciate some extra input.

I like Rhymes for Reasons best. Sounds classy. Good luck with it Phoenix - hope it goes down well.

Thanks for these, Mr P is very much taken with Rhymes for Reasons (jury out on whether it should be "4" or "for"

He reminded me that over the years I have been asked for (and done) verse for various wedding anniversaries, engagement parties, hen nights, best man speeches and even funerals/memorial services, so he feels that Rhymes (for/4) Reasons is the best choice?

Bearing in mind that he is hovering at my elbow, poised to go onto the Companies House website and register it.........

Once it's registered, I don't actually have to do anything, but after 2 years I have to submit accounts to Companies House, whether I'm trading or not!

Oooh heck! it's all real and scary!

"Occasional Odes" - i.e. poetry for occasions. Just a thought!

I think Verse & Worse has already been done (and copyrighted!).

My preference is Verses and Worse and my second is Rhymes4Reasons.
