    More the hiking sort than the keeping fit sort! Keep your shoes in your desk and commute in trainers.

      I knew NLUK was familiar, couldn't remember if you ever said you did "time" there.

        I was there when you could park on site but it got the stage you had to park on and space of grass you can find and in winter it just destroyed it.

            Never did, but I've been past it when the M6 has been blocked. A decent enough run from my house albeit wrong side of Manchester for a guaranteed good commute.

              Agent just cancelled interview - apparently the project won't need as many PMs as they thought ....typical based on the experience of others who have worked for Barclays ��

                  A project with more than one project manager? Eesh.

                    Only an idiot, or a rich man, would walk away. In these circumstances you keep on billing and have an eye on the market. It's called 'business'.

                      Should be quite easy then. I've been employed by my limited company for longer than that.
