    I get a few mails every week, even though my profile is turned off.

    Hope things are still the same when I get back in March

          Not me either. I was really looking forward to some bench time this year but it hasn't happened. I have taken on some projects that I have not really wanted anything to do with, but when the offer is there on the table, the office is only 15 minutes from home and its the best ever rate, what can you do?

          I even went on site today and did some work

          Maybe next year

            I'm liking the attitude here! good for you
            Some people are like slinkys, totally pointless but the thought of pushing them down a flight of stairs never fails to put a smile on your face.

              Not me. I've got another six months' porridge to do here.

                  Where you going?


                  I am finishing in 6 weeks, and will take a couple of months off. The wife has just got a nice new contract, so she can bring in the dosh for awhile, while I stay at home and watch Trisha and sneer condescendingly at the chavs appearing on the show.

                    I'm finishing this gig in March and I've already had sniffs from agents.

                    So not on the bench yet (thankfully).

                      I know it is difficult to tell sometimes, but those things are called "dogs".
