    Indeed 3 years with one of my contracts. They seemed to like me.

            My longest time at one clientco was 5 years, mainly because they couldn't find a permie who was willing or able to do what I was doing. They eventually replaced me with another contractor who was willing to do it for about half my rate.

              I was channel flicking last night and caught five minutes of Louis Theroux's wild weekends. Apparently according to some Black power group Tom Jones is really Black under the skin.
