    IT was always my plan B due to my playing in a band. Loads of gigs, loads of lable interest (apparently), but still not signed, so have to plod along pretending I know what I'm doing...

              Me too. Haven't worked in England for a while. What's the best rate for high-end support ?
              Is jobserve a good guide? The very best I see there is around 500 but they are few and far. 400 seems to be more common for the top end.

              There are too many fishing trips on jobserve though.

                I architect .NET systems to replace the obsolete by design Java systems that Cowboy Bob builds.

                    I work on computers, but I tell women I'm a binman - I do have my pride.

                      the gig I'm on at the moment is a dash under 400pd but also there is overtime and on call etc etc.... I've been offered more by Banks, and Barclays are one of them but they muck you around with contracts so I'm happy sitting here!! (i.e Not working for a Bank at the moment but for an Oil company) I've gigged at a few, Bank of America, Mellon and JPMC and there not so bad.
