      If you need the money then I would take anything they offer. If you don't need the money and are in a position to retire then I would recomend exiting stage left and leave the whole sorry mess of an industry behind you.

        so it's not like, you know, we'll be forced in to, you know, horror of horrors, trading in the Passat or moving to a smaller bedsit

        My current gig has had a mix of changes. It's been full time, part time, no time, over the past 18 months. The consultancy review every three months what they need and scale the requirement up/down.

              Just had a 3 month extension through to 4th July so the job hunt will wait a bit longer.

                  Not sure what I'll pick up next.
                  How about putting those crayons down and finishing that one line macro, then you can retire
