Yeah that's what people sacked from the first one sayOriginally posted by churkusthey say getting the 2nd contract is harder??.The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.” -
My gig is up next week and I have had loads and loads of response from agents (some blatantly fishing) but lots of genuine. So not a bad time to be looking. Good luck anywaysComment

Worst time to look is Feb/March because nobody wants to spend any money until the new financial year, or they are waiting to see how much money is left over to spend in the current financial year.Comment
