How on earth do i write a business plan when there are so many unknowns?

Sherlock sent me his which is proving useful. A lot of templates that I have seen don't appear to give too much information. As I'm trying to secure a loan I feel like I have to justify why I want the location. Information about competitors, even the market as a whole in the UK. Im not sure if this is correct or not, lol I have even added the amount of daily road users on the road which goes by, and how far away it is from the two nearest cities. Not sure if its all relevant, but then again, I'm asking for 100k...

The problem with the land is its not actually for sale, so its hard to gauge a price, I know what it was sold for several years ago though, so I've budgeted for a large increase. In reality, who knows.

With the building, again i have an approx, and the companies will do the planning permission and ground works, I have an idea of the building but not the extras, so again i have over budgeted but i have no idea if its enough.

i cant estimate the building until i buy the land, i cant by the land until i get the loan, i cant get the loan until i do the business plan. its catch 22

This gender neutral initiative is confusing.

I agree with legion, I have no problem identifying someone as he, she or them if that who they want to be referred to. My problem is also with the million different sexual orientations.

I think the important thing would be to instill in our children that they can do any job they want to. As a girl, i liked to play with toy cars, they were fun, i had loads of them, didnt mean i wanted to be a boy.

We need to get away from the whole boys can wear make up and girls cant be astronauts and put more emphasis on intelligence and enjoying oneself.

I guess im on the night shift now...

I drink insane amounts of caffeine everyday for years and its never affected my sleep. But lately I just seem to be able to sleep better during the day, and sometimes on the sofa. I considered sleeping on the sofa last night but didn't want to go down and disturb my dogs sleeping pattern too.

I just feel like I have too mush to do and I dont want to sleep. I used to do night shifts several years ago, it sucked and I never want to do shifts again, but lately I'm just working every hour of the day that i can.
