A lot of urgent migration and consolidation work needed with all those acquisitions and mergers... plus they can't use their normal staff as they've laid them off! Contract market - BOOMED!!! (but only for a couple of months or so)

Dont say anything bad, I've just opened another 10k position.

Remember shares go up as well as down! Or like the Ftse, a bloody rollercoaster!
