        It was still an ok rate, just lower than other work up here (North). But then take out T&S too.

              If you were getting £800pd for something an Indian outsource person can do, that was the crazy thing. Generic developer roles paying >£500pd is insane.

                    Good question, that was good for seeing skills and techologies on the up and on the down.
