Your father was a Roman...

What? You were raped?

Well...at first...

"Naughtius Maximus his name was. Hmm. Promised me the known world he did. I was to be taken to Rome, House by the Forum. Slaves. Asses' milk. As much gold as I could eat. Then, he, having his way with me had... voom! Like a rat out of an aquaduct."

Well apart from the free PEI insurance, extensive discount on other key services....

free? don't you pay an annual sub?

[malvolio]

free? don't you pay an annual sub?

I don't pay separately for or take any action to receive the PEI Insurance so that counts as "free" by my standards. PCG has to pay for the insurances as much as everything else it does, and its only significant income stream is its membership charges.

Bit like free banking really - it's not free, you just don't see how much of your deposited cash gets passed back as interest.

Enough Python already, it's just SO passé.

Romanorum vado domus, surely...

[christhedon]

Are they still offering IR35 insurance (lawyers fees I think it was) - looks like they took it off their website. Do the old members still get it?

[malvolio]

Sorry? Are you looking at the right website?

I'm a PCG Member - the forums for me are worth the membership fee alone. In fact it's so brilliant I don't understand why everyone isn't a member, even those people who aren't contractors. I got my wife and kids to join, plus my gran as well.

I joined yesterday, for the insurance, forums and contract templates. I even managed to find a discount code on Google, to make it even better value for money!

Was that the 15% discount ?
