They've done you a favour. The longer you stay in your early contracts, the more of a permy mindset you have. You need to get about a bit.

Good point about October. Clients are on half-term holidays with the kids, and also no-one wants to go over budget for the half-yearly financial reports. Yep, October is as dead as a dodo.

That's not the Fujitsu pan-european thing is it? Or am I getting confused?

Fujitsu have been trying to clear ut thier contractors and replace them with permies for about 3 years now as far as i'm aware, you are lucky to have lasted so long.

In my experience people who are too fussy (when they can't afford to be) struggle with the 2nd contract.

Had a pimp call about half hour ago with contract for Fujitsu at DVLA, Swansea so they're either taking some on or its a spot of afternoon fishing...
