    I went permie a year ago but at least once a week I get an email or a call about a contract gig. Depends on your skillset and where you're willing to work.

      It sometimes picks up in November or December in a leap year.

        We normally get a slight bump every lunar eclipse but the real boom time is when Haleys Comet visits Earth... not long now.

          It usually picks up on a Thursday.

          Good luck.

          I look forward to your all knowing and likely sarcastic and unhelpful reply.

            No it's on a Wednesday when there is a blue moon.

                  I should avoid even-numbered years; they're often a washout what with the world cup or the Olympics always being on

                    You mean years beginning with a 20?

                      I start a new gig in Jan, stil have another interview I've not yet cancelled, plus got a call last week to come back for an interview for a senior perm role I had two for a few months and they'd like to progress. So yes, I'd say it will pick up.
