A big un joining it here !
Just to cheer you up, I've been ringing round my fellow contractors and a few of us are benched and resigned to a decent stay on it. There has been a handful of contracts on Jobserve over the last month or so and all of us have fired off CVs to them regardless of location ( ie, probably wouldn't want them anyway at this early stage in benchdom so haven't chased them up ) and none of us has heard a thing back. All of us 10yr+ in our niche so there must be hundreds of CVs from lesser experienced bods also going in the binComment

I have him in my kitchen cupboardThe 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.”Comment
