2a for definite. Texas seems like a dream to me. Gas Monkey BBQ & Grill, V8 Trucks and Steak. Air-conditioning beats the heat!I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).Comment

Texas is a great place, to go on holiday.
In the US you get 2 weeks holiday a year,
No way would I move to the US, my 1 week working in California made it clear to me, it's a gr8 place to visit. You will spend most of your time in the USA boxed in a cubicle, and the rest of what little time you have left trying to sort out every day chores. If you are lucky enough to be in a sky scraper at least you can look out the window from time to time.
US.....big NO.I'm alright JackComment

DECISION MADE.
After another long conversation with GFP, I've decided to stay in the UK.
A sincere thank-you to you all for your thoughts, which really have helped.
The world (of IT) is definitely not my lobster, let's hope that things work out on the personal front.
At least I'll remain a contractor, albeit most likely a soon-to-be-unemployed one.Comment
