Haha! Are you guys out of work? Quick responses!!
Excellent advice all round. I feel happy taking the £200/day, and think the experience with the two companies is fantastic in itself.
Should I tell them that I am happy with the original 3 month contract or snap up the 6 months if I am offered?
Thank you for the help and pleasent welcome - I am sure I will have a few more questions.
P.S. I am not a bird.

No - the second contract is the hardest.Originally posted by Cooperinliverp00l View PostThe first contract is always the hardest.....
First one, you are more flexible, may have lower expectations, or not really know what the market rate is paying.
Second one, you've had your eyes opened by the first, and start to get a bit pickier about what / where / when / for how much you will be doing.
Welcome, though!
