      Jolly Good show Sir!

      I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this

        Official CUK bench - Late Summer 2015

        Somebody keep my place, please. I should be back on the bench in six weeks.

          Boy that was a close one.

          Got a call yesterday for a role very close to home (Harpenden). The pimp put me forward and was on the blower inside of 20 minutes. They really like your CV and want to give you a first round telephone interview tomorrow sometime between 12 and 13:30. Firm up details in the morning.

          Fortunately the pimp rang at 11:20am this morning to say that he cannot get hold of the client for love nor money, and the cheeky little scoundrel isn't responding to emails.

          Phew!
          Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.

            Dubbin has arrived. Just put the first application on my new walking boots.

                    Yeah I know.... just been benched for so long that I'm really looking forward to getting some funds back in the old company account...

                    In the meantime I'll keep looking around

                      Damn - didn't get the Bath role.

                      I am about to be offered a role I really don't particularly want though: 1 & 1/2 hours commute each way for 20% less than my usual rate.

                      In the absence of anything else, I may have to accept. Don't exactly feel motivated though.
