    I only visited Knutsford once or twice, I was based in Canary Wharf on the stints I did there. I remember being given 2 hours to decide whether to accept a rate cut or walk. I chose the latter. Worked at Barclays three times, wouldn't go back again.

So we identified some people and Barclaycard were happy, until they found out that virtually every workstream found exactly the same people
